Hey Walter, Happy New Year!
Great to see the first version of the 108 Guidelines! I'd love a copy of MADE TO PERSUADE for the MRC. How much for S/H? How are things over there?

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.
