Hi Lisa,

Standard: Up to 10 items at a time; 1 week circulation with 1 renewal.

They can also fill out a "Special Loan" form for my approval if they want
something above that.

However, we do not permit semester loans. If the professor wants to make
sure certain items are available for his or her class; we often urge them
to put it on Media Reserve (no circulation outside the Library) w/ special
permission for them or their TA to have it out for a few hours to show in
lecture.

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.
