As the Media Librarian, I probably do 90% of the selection, but I do solicit opinions from the faculty, and after 10 years here I have a feeling for what would be useful for our faculty.

Dear Colleagues, At your institutions, is DVD and Video selection the responsibility of subject specialists, or primarily the responsibility of a media specialist? Or is the responsibility shared? Thank you very much for your feedback. Benjamin Turner Assistant Professor, Instructional Services St. John's University Libraries [email protected] 718.990.5562
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.
