I would make it separate. When we started getting videogames last year, we labeled and shelved each format separately - Wii, PS3, and Gamebox - as well as separately from our CD-ROM collection.

What do you all do? What do you suggest for a small Bluray collection like ours? Mary.

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.
