Hi, Are you talking about paper or cardboard sleeves/pockets, or traditional jewel cases for cds. In either case, we would end up repackaging it. If it was for a school or library that was just going to us it in house, and not go anywhere, maybe the sleeve would be ok, but even then, I would see repackaging it just for protecting the disc, making sure that the information on the insert/sleeve was visible, etc.

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.
