Way back 15 years ago, I was finishing my MLS with a culminating project
looking at the video purchasing patterns of Ohio public librarians
related to the MPAA ratings.
Basically, I found that while R rated films was the largest group of
videos being released, PG and PG-13 were evidenced in far greater
numbers in library collections.
X and NC-17 were virtually non-existent.
The more things that change....

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.
