As part of a business research project, trying to find out the extent to which libraries buy from wholesalers such as Ingram, Baker & Taylor, and Midwest Tape? I'm particularly interested in whether academic libraries buy from wholesalers. Also public libraries. I'm under the impression that many public libraries buy almost all their titles from the three mentioned above, or one of the three. Is the same true of university libraries?
Thanks, Peter Cohn Hillcrest Films 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.
