Library Journal is conducting a salary survey. Salary issues are rampant in US Libraries, so I encourage all to complete the survey here:

No survey is perfect, and this one has some flaws… Media responsibility is not spelled out as an area of responsibility, but there is the option to enter "Other". Also as the end of the survey there is the ability to write additional explanation/comment. deg farrelly, ShareStream Administrator/Media Librarian Arizona State University Libraries Hayden Library C1H1 P.O.

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.
