Hello Everyone and Happy Friday! The issue of placing AV material in bookdrops has come up at my library, and I wanted to put out a quick, informal survey to my fellow VidLibbers in academic libraries to pose a few questions...1) Do you allow for the return of AV materials (DVDs, VHS, etc.) via book drop? If not, what are your reasons for not doing so?2) If you do allow return of AV materials via book drop, do you have a separate book drop dedicated to media?3) If you do allow use of (or have allowed use of in the past) of a book drop for media return, what (if any) challenges / problems have you encountered?Many thanks in advance for your time, ************************* Meghann Matwichuk, M.S.
