Slide/Video Program

Your Club must be a paid member of SFMS

Ordering Slide Programs:

• Submit your request to the Slides/Programs Committee Chair using the form below.  

• Give at least 30 days advance notice to the Slide Program Chair when requesting programs. This gives your club's Program Chair a chance to familiarize him/herself with the contents of the program when received.

• List two alternate choices. (First and second choices may not be available.)

• Give full name of your club, plus your name, email address, phone number, and mailing address where you can be reached.

• Give the date the program is to be presented to your club.

After the Program has been presented.

• Please return within 4 days.

Before wrapping the program for return to the SFMS, check:

• Make sure video is rewound.

• That all slides are accounted for.

• See that all slides are in numerical order.

• That all slides are facing in the same direction.

• Script, and/or cassette, is enclosed.

• Please do not correct script!!!  Instead, put a note in box and the Slide Program Chair will make needed corrections.

• Return address - include club name.*

• Address to Slide Program Chair.*

• Print "Library Rate" in lower left hand corner.*

• Insure for $50.00! - It is more important that the slides be insured because if they are lost or damaged in the mail, they cannot be replaced.

Note 1) - Omit steps marked with (*) if return labels are used.

Note 2) - Many Postal Clerks are not familiar with "Library Rates".  It covers material - including slides - being sent to or from non-profit educational organizations.  If faced with this situation refer to: USPS Retail Mail, 170 Retail Mail Media Mail and Library Mail

 Warning: when slides are left too long in projector they will buckle from the heat and come loose from the frame, thus destroying a program!!
