At my library, processing reserves goes through our Circulation Department. Most faculty members will send their lists and personal copies to the Head of Circulation. Some faculty will send their requests through their liaisons, especially if they need to order something for reserves. The liaisons will pass the order on to Acquisitions with a note to forward it to Circulation for reserve. They alsol notify Circulation of all reserve requests. It usually works out well.

Hi everyone, I have a question for those who work in an academic setting. Our library is evaluating the way we handle reserves. I am wondering what other college libraries do. Is there one staff member in charge? If so, what department does this fall under? Or (if you use a liaison program) do the various subject specialists handle reserves for faculty in their subject area? Any feedback you can offer will be greatly appreciated. Feel free to reply off list. Thank you!

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.
