Re: [Videolib] Other side of immigration FW: Licensing issue - FirstNotice

I haven’t received this, but perhaps he is only addressing the college/university market. We purchased our copy from Midwest, also. Becky Tatar Periodicals/Audiovisuals Aurora Public Library 1 E. Benton Street Aurora, IL 60505 Phone: 630-264-4100 FAX: 630-896-3209

Re: [Videolib] Midwest Tape processing cataloging

We have them do our processing – it’s very good. About the only thing I can mention is that because they scan the covers, and put a strip on the top of the cover with our logo, name, and barcode, the pictures on the covers of the CDs are not quite the same. They look a little squished and

[Videolib] Downloadable music subscription

Hello, all, We are starting to investigate subscription services that offer downloadable music. We know about Freegal, Naxos and Alexander Street Press, but is there anyone else who offers this for libraries, especially with a popular music focus? Thanks! (Sorry for any duplication!) Becky

[Videolib] Magazine Hollywood Reporter

Hi, all. We've had a patron request to get the magazine The Hollywood Reporter. Is this a general interest title, or is it more specific for the industry. Not many libraries in Illinois have it, and only one is a public library. The website appears to be a higher class than Entertainment

Re: [Videolib] New proposed pricing model for streaming Hollywoodfilms

This is interesting, because at the PLA Spring Symposium, someone had a program on material delivery - basically saying physical items such as books, cds and dvds, etc are on the way out because everyone wants downloads. It was very depressing. Becky Tatar Periodicals/Audiovisuals Aurora

Re: [Videolib] Dark Shadows

We would come home and watch it after school. In the summer, we would get out of the pool at 3:00, dry off, go in and watch the end of One Life to Live before watching Dark Shadows! Those were the days! Becky Tatar Periodicals/Audiovisuals Aurora Public Library 1 E. Benton Street Aurora,

Re: [Videolib] cumulative top DVD rentals lists

Yes, but they also have video charts - but they are on the www.billboard.biz site, and you need to be a subscriber to access that material. Becky Tatar Periodicals/Audiovisuals Aurora Public Library 1 E. Benton Street Aurora, IL 60505 Phone: 630-264-4100 FAX: 630-896-3209

[Videolib] Thanks!

Just a note to say thank you to everyone on this list. I have learned so much from all of you, and I share this with staff and patrons. I'm so glad this service is here, and thanks especially to Gary and Berkeley for hosting this. I talk about my friends on the list, even though I might have

[Videolib] Great tag lines

Ok, just have to share - someone gave us a pile of dvds. In checking them on IMDB for reviews, this title came up, with one of the best taglines. I'm laughing all morning about this. Stanley Kubrick's Killer Kiss - Tagline - Her Soft Mouth Was the Road to Sin-Smeared Violence!

[Videolib] Disc cleaner

Hi, all. In a related question to disc cleaning machines, does anyone know of a place to get just a liquid cleaner similar to Maxell Disc Electronic Cleaner? Sometimes, all that's needed is a good washing - rather than a resanding. I've tried the box stores, library supply companies, Radio
