Re: [Videolib] Connections Series

2014-04-23 Thread Markus, Tim
We recently updated all three of the Connections series as well as The day the 
day the universe changed, all with James Burke. I hadn't watched any of them in 
years so I popped The day the universe changed into my DVD player and was 
pleasantly surprised at how well it still held up.  Ended up watching it to the 
end. Fascinating series.

Hi, all,

I'm doing some weeding in our collection, and have a question about the series 
Connections 1.  Is it still a valid series to keep?  It's still available, but 
it was done in 1978.  Our copies are still going out, also.  Thanks!

Hi all

Lori Widzinski has asked about the sudden and inexplicable cutting out
of
videolib...don't get me started!  UCB's email systems have been
experiencing fatal crashes and hiccups for the past two weeks.  Videolib
is tied to that system.  Things are provisionally up and running now and
videolib should be online...at least for the present.

Yet another bit of lovely budgetary fall-out in sunny California.

Hi Tim,

1)  I look all around and see if it has been re-released on DVD. If so,
ask my acquisitions colleague to buy it as a rush.

2) Remind the faculty members that they can make an arrangement w/ one
of
the support units in the university to have a VHS player set up for
display in the class.

3) If it has not been released on VHS, sometimes try to approach the
original distributor with request for permission to format shift.

4) If the distributor or rights holder cannot be located, I heave a
heavy
sigh and look through our collection and among newer releases to see if
there is something else that is on DVD that could satisfy the user's
need.

Re: [Videolib] Media circulation terms

2011-10-27 Thread Markus, Tim
7 day checkout, unlimited # for students, staff and faculty. Our
non-media checkout is by the quarter so that's considered fairly
conservative for us. And of course faculty are encouraged to book in
advance. Circ will often adjust the due dates for faculty if they need
material longer as well.

Good morning everyone,

 

Our library has what I believe is a very generous circulation policy for
our media items but a handful of my faculty complain vociferously that
it is too restricted. Could those of you with an academic media library
collection share how many films a faculty member is allowed to have out
at one time and for what duration? 

 

Your information is much appreciated!
