Plain old vegetable oil will remove adhesive residue. I don't know how it works on the adhesive on hub labels, but it certainly removes all sorts of other adhesive residue. So no need to buy an expensive, possibly toxic residue remover.

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.
