When I was at a Center library 10 years ago I got rid of all the VHS's. People were just not using them, and most people even 10 years ago didn't have a VHS player.
Currently I'm a public librarian and we do not have any VHS's, we have plenty of DVDs that circulate and actually plenty of audio CDs that circulate as well. I wouldn't get rid of those as quickly as the VHS's. Rebecca On Mon, Feb 28, 2022, 8:55 PM Andrea Rapp via Hasafran < hasafran@lists.osu.edu> wrote: > Have you all tossed your VHS collections?
