Our IT department will no longer service VHS players, so we're slowly sifting through the 3,000 VHS tapes in our collection, finding DVD or streaming media replacements. I was wondering if any of you could recommend suitable replacements for The Nature of language : the linguistic perspective and Second language acquisition: A new look at authentic materials. If you've come across good educational films about language in general and could offer suggestions as well, I'd appreciate it. Also, are there any good collection development tools that you use to find reviews on educational films? Thanks, Hannah Lee Harper College Library Palatine, IL ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 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.
