Is there such a thing?? I'm constantly hearing complaints from patrons about unplayable DVDs in our collection. This is one complaint I find totally valid.
We don't remotely have the labor available to clean and inspect every disc upon return a la Netflix, but I wonder if there's anything we can do short of that which beats sticking items to languish on a problem shelf?? Does anyone try to periodically clean ALL their DVDs? Blaine Waterman Film and Television Specialist San Francisco Public Library 415.557.4461 [email protected] Official SFPL use only
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.
