[Videolib] audiocassettes

2012-12-19 Thread Rosen, Rhonda
Hi -
For academic librarieswhat are you doing with your audiocassette 
collections?
We no longer have players in our media area and obviously the format is 
obsolete...while I'm actively replacing VHS with DVD - I am not sure I want to 
go this route with audio
We have mostly classical music and spoken word.

Any ideas?

I just recently weeded most of our audio cassette collection. They have never 
circulated here since I first came aboard 7 years ago. 

We've also seen that our audio CDs also do not circulate as much.

Re: [Videolib] audiocassettes

2012-12-19 Thread McKenzie, Rue
We have just recently (and somewhat gradually) let go of our audiocassette 
collection.  Much of the content was dated.  I did go through our holdings to 
determine condition, use, etc.  I think the music has been covered well by 
compact disc.  However, we had a number of audiobooks on tape, and those titles 
tended to be regularly used in the past.  So, this year I made a concerted 
effort to purchase a number of books, poetry, speeches on CD.  Actually, there 
are still a few books on tape remaining, but probably not for long.

Working through this format process has seemed much less 'painful' than working 
through the VHS issues so many of us are facing at this time.  Ugh...

We dumped most of the collection. There were a few  large box sets and ones 
attached to books that I have yet to look through. 

I'll probably talk to the subject liaison librarian or department for those 
specific sets, but more than likely they will probably be discarded.

We've also tossed out  5.25/3.5 floppy discs as well since we don't have the 
hardware to support them.

[Videolib] I need feedback on online video platforms for higher ed - American U is looking at alternatives to our homegrown system

2012-12-19 Thread Chris Lewis
Our primary candidates are Sharestream, Kaltura, Ensemble, and Polycom
products. If your university is using any of these or others, I'd like
to know about it for comparison shopping.  Also a word or two about
your experience would be valuable.

We already use Panopto for lecture capture so aren't looking for that
kind of system. Rather our focus is more on licensed collections,
student productions, live events such as graduations and visiting
speakers, and archived university-produced video.

Many thanks.

It'a time to withdraw these. Can you adapt your VHS replacement criteria to 
prioritize which ones you would buy on CD or withdraw?
 Do you have a classical CD collection already and/or streaming classical music 
such as NAXOS or ASP? If so, these CDs are superfluos.

Demand for CDs at my institution has really slowed because of MP3 revolution 
and streaming audio.

Spoken word is also available on CD.

I always get input from faculty before I wholesale withdraw a collection, just 
so they know, and I inquire what is most needed for teaching and research. I 
did this with 16mm last year and retained some things they  requested.

[Videolib] VHS weeding

2012-12-19 Thread Deg Farrelly
I am in the process of weeding VHS from our collection now.

Mostly we are moving all VHS out of the building into a storage facility
(another library) where they will be requestable.  (About 9600 titles),
but in the process we are withdrawing some titles:

@400 VHS that have been in the collection AT LEAST 7 years that have never
been borrowed.  (I will look at these individually to make sure that there
are no irreplaceable titles)

@250 titles that we have in our Films on Demand subscription

@200 titles in our purchased Filmakers Library Online collection

A handful of additional titles from other companies that we have in
streaming format on one platform or anotherŠ for example BBC Shakespeare
plays

Anything in VHS that we also have in DVD

Duplicate VHS copies, if there is another VHS (or DVD) copy in the library
collection.


This is very broad, and actually very conservative, I think.

Re: [Videolib] VHS weeding

2012-12-19 Thread Steinhoff, Cindy
We weeded VHS starting about 2 years ago and made another pass through this 
past summer.  Our criteria are almost exactly like Deg's.  We also checked the 
last circulation date for each program and withdrew anything that hadn't 
circulated in 3 years.

I am in the process of weeding VHS from our collection now.

Mostly we are moving all VHS out of the building into a storage facility 
(another library) where they will be requestable.  (About 9600 titles), but in 
the process we are withdrawing some titles:

@400 VHS that have been in the collection AT LEAST 7 years that have never been 
borrowed.  (I will look at these individually to make sure that there are no 
irreplaceable titles)

@250 titles that we have in our Films on Demand subscription

@200 titles in our purchased Filmakers Library Online collection

A handful of additional titles from other companies that we have in streaming 
format on one platform or anotherŠ for example BBC Shakespeare plays

Anything in VHS that we also have in DVD

Duplicate VHS copies, if there is another VHS (or DVD) copy in the library 
collection.


This is very broad, and actually very conservative, I think.

this is aacc
Our audiocassette collection wasn’t large.  We withdrew most of it about 3 
years ago.  In preparation for a move to a temporary location while our 
building was being renovated and expanded, we withdrew the remaining few 
audiocassettes.  No music; it was mostly spoken word and foreign language 
instructional programs.

Hi –
For academic libraries….what are you doing with your audiocassette collections?
We no longer have players in our media area and obviously the format is 
obsolete…while I’m actively replacing VHS with DVD – I am not sure I want to go 
this route with audio….
We have mostly classical music and spoken word.

Any ideas?
