Not a library term but I prefer classic. I just attended a film festival of 4 days of features, shorts and cartoons all in 16mm and still regularly watch VHS. Jessica

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.
