We will occasionally order a second copy if there is demand, usually interdisciplinary, for it. One example is the Merchants of Cool which appealed to many faculty at the same time. If it has circulated several times and is requested to be held, we will buy another copy (unless, of course, it is one of those multi-hundred $$ corporate training titles.

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.
