We have two video theatres at UConn's Homer Babbidge Library. A small one that seats 30, a large one that seats 90. Both have DVD, VCR and can handle most any format. Most of our Library classrooms are equipped to display DVD's full screen, too. Most of our physical course reserve is DVD, @700 per semester, plus we do a lot of streaming.

Happy Friday everyone. We're beginning to think about strategic planning at our institution and space is big on the agenda. I've had a couple faculty express a longing for the library to have an actual theatre which is an intriguing idea to me so I wanted to take a very informal poll - How many of you have a theatre in your library and what is that space used for? I look forward to your responses! Best, -lisa H. Music & Media Librarian Howard-Tilton Memorial Library Tulane University 504.314.7822
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.
