Sadly Karen some of those "cutting edge" people can't be bothered to go to the library or even wait for the title to come out on DVD, they go straight for illegal download sites but I am encouraged by the reports of you and others.

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.
