Better to use Movies Unlimited or Amazon...  Why would you use a
questionable source when the stuff is all over the place from reputable
firms?

Right, but they do not provide a link to the film, just the trailer.

They do provide full access to other films, such as "Boarding House Blues" 1948
http://matineeclassics.com/movies/1948/boarding_house_blues/

that is what I am curious about.
Thanks again,

Re: [Videolib] Question

2011-06-20 Thread Tatar, Becky
Sorry to be late on this.  If your collection is fairly static, this
will probably work.  We put the discs in pockets from Demco;  double
rolls of accession numbers are ordered - one accession number is placed
on the case cover, the other on the pocket.  We also write the title and
the barcode on the pocket.  These are in file drawers by accession
number.  The empty cases are on the shelves by title for feature films,
and by call number for nonfiction.  People bring up the empty cases and
the circ clerks retrieve the discs.  Due to the volume we circulate - we
limit DVDs to 5 per person.  We also have the same setup for CDs -
except the limit is 10 per person.  However, if you have a large,
growing collection, this can start causing problems.  Do you have space
to expand cabinets when the collection is growing.  It doesn't take as
long as you think.  Hope this helps.

Subject: [Videolib] Question

 

Hello all, 

Sadly this is the summer of my discontent and I have to essentially shut
my department down in the name of streamlining services and fiscal
whatevers.  All I know is my department is on the chopping block and I
have to help move the collection to the circulation department.  The
head of circ is brainstorming and on of the things she brought up is
making the collection browsable.  We lack the funding to make the
collection secure, so the thought is to go the empty case on the shelf
and DVD kept behind a counter.  So I am asking those libraries that have
this kind of model, how are you storing your DVDs?  Do you have them in
sleeves, and if so how are they stored?  Any help you can provide would
be nice.   

thanks

 APALA Versailles Village Bus Tour & Luncheon*
 **Friday / June 24, 2011  / 11:30 am – 4:30 pm**

New Orleans has a sizable and vibrant Vietnamese community that began  
in the mid 1970s. Everything changed after Hurricane Katrina and the  
BP Oil Spill as the community was displaced, jobs were lost, and  
everyday life was disrupted. But the community of Versailles has  
organized and now is in the process of rebuilding. Their struggles and  
triumphs were captured in the documentary "A Village Called  
Versailles". We invite you to join us on a guided tour through New  
Orleans East that will take you to various sites, including non-profit  
organizations, the intercultural charter school, youth community  
center, the future urban farm, and New Orleans East library (under  
construction), the Bayou Sauvage National Wildlife Refuge, and the  
landfill site that became a rallying point for the community.


The tour will be led by Minh Thanh Nguyen, one of the main organizers.  
Presently, he is the Executive Director of the Vietnamese  
AmericanYoung Leaders Association (VAYLA) of New Orleans. The tour  
will begin with a lunch stop at a local Vietnamese Restaurant in  
Versailles.


Please arrive 15 minutes prior to our departure time
Bus will leave at 11:30 Sharp!
