Greetings, I'm beginning to plan a VHS holdings survey where our first step would be to determine how many of our VHS collections might be unavailable on DVD. I do have Gary's 8/11/11 "Berkely's 'VHS ONLY' list" . Are there updates, compiled or other lists available in addition to Gary's? Also, thoughts or words of advice for conducting VHS collection surveys would be welcome---I'm just now beginning to plan.
Thanks, Tyra Grant Tyra Grant Digital preservation and electronic media officer University of Kansas Libraries tgr...@ku.edu<mailto:tgr...@ku.edu> Phone: 785-864-8951
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.
