Re: [Videolib] Recommended Faculty Media Development Labs
Loyola Marymount University has a Faculty Innovation Center http://its2.lmu.edu/FIC/ located in their main library and is run by their IT department. It is pretty awesome. At Otis, we have a Teaching / Learning Center http://www.otis.edu/life_otis/faculty_life/tlc/index.html in our library; faculty can use the space to explore instructional technologies. --Heather Heather Cleary Digital Projects and Metadata Librarian Otis College of Art and Design 9045 Lincoln Boulevard, Los Angeles, California 90045 Phone 310 665 6926 Website http://blogs.otis.edu/otisvrc Email hcle...@otis.edu mailto:hcle...@otis.edu From: videolib-boun...@lists.berkeley.edu [mailto:videolib-boun...@lists.berkeley.edu] On Behalf Of Chuck McCann Sent: Wednesday, March 30, 2011 8:57 AM To: videolib@lists.berkeley.edu Subject: [Videolib] Recommended Faculty Media Development Labs Can anyone point me to any, worthy of emulating, high ed institution faculty digital media labs (or media development lab, or open-access development lab .. .. however the phrase may be, I think you're catching my drift) .. . . media labs with a focus on faculty (and maybe graduate teachers too).

Re: [Videolib] DVD Packaging
Like other libraries, we repackage the DVDs in slimlines and paper covers. We tried covering the paper ones, but they didn't last very long. We also have to rebox the green DVD cases -- the ones with the cut-outs of the recycle logo and film reels. We do keep the original packaging if it's really cool, unique or dreadful to use as examples for marketing and product design. --Heather Heather Cleary Digital Projects and Metadata Librarian Otis College of Art and Design 9045 Lincoln Boulevard, Los Angeles, California 90045 Phone 310 665 6926 Website http://blogs.otis.edu/vrclib/ Email hcle...@otis.edu mailto:hcle...@otis.edu From: videolib-boun...@lists.berkeley.edu [mailto:videolib-boun...@lists.berkeley.edu] On Behalf Of CROWLEY, CHRISTINE Sent: Sunday, February 07, 2010 9:13 AM To: videolib@lists.berkeley.edu Subject: RE: [Videolib] DVD Packaging If we have to repackage every dvd we purchase that will add to our costs and time. Please remember that we buy these to circulate. Thus, people carry them about, drop them, stuff them in backpacks, drop into the outside bookdrop, etc. We also want something that can bear a label so patrons can find them on the shelf.

I don't think it affected their buying decision but instead of be environmental friendly, we were contributing to landfill. And collectors hate different packaging as it turns out. We went back to amaray cases (I think they don't mind slim cases as long as they're sturdy) for the next releases.
