Hello Wise People, A subscriber emailed me today to ask if Video Librarian could start including UPC codes in the header information of reviews. It's been over 20 years since I was working in the library, so I might be a little out of touch on ye olde day-to-day. Two decades ago, ISBN was king (and we still include those) and no one gave a rat's patootie about UPC codes. Has there been a tectonic plate shift that I missed? In short, are UPC codes now important bits of information?

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.
