We have been using hub labels for several years without any problems. We
print our library's name and the item's barcode # on them.
Hope this helps,
Gail

Thanks for the input. We know about the label rings. Our catalogers
are reluctant to put stickers on our DVD's because we used to have all
kinds of trouble with stickers on our CD's. They tended to cause the
CD to become jammed in the player. Perhaps stickers and players are
better these days. This was in the late 90's as I recall. Since we
are creating a collection for student circulation, we are more keen to
label our DVD disks themselves, which we have not done in the past.

I think you will damage the data, but there is a tiny ring in the
center that you can mark. - richard

At 7pm, I went to see a film screening of *HURRY TOMORROW*...It is
an extremely shocking and intense film about mental health
institutions in the 70s. If you haven't seen it, I highly suggest it.
It's heart-wrenching (I cried). The discussion afterward was equally
profound, and I left with a renewed passion to become a clinical
therapist. My PscyD can't come soon enough. Hannah Monk, Wesleyan,

VIDEOLIB is intended to encourage the broad and lively discussion of issues
relating to the selection, evaluation, acquisition,bibliographic control,
preservation, and use of current and evolving video formats in libraries and
related institutions. It is hoped that the list will serve as an effective
working tool for video librarians, as well as a channel of communication
between libraries,educational institutions, and video producers and
distributors.
