[Videolib] Opening Day collections
Hi, all, Next spring, we will be moving into a brand new library! Yay for us. I'm starting to look at opening day collections for DVD and CDs. Not that I think we'll have any funds for it, but just in case. For films, along with Academy Award winners (which I know can be controversial), AFI lists, National Film Registry, is there anything else to look at? This can also include television, Spanish films, and information/documentaries. Thanks a lot! Becky Tatar Periodicals/Audiovisuals Aurora Public Library 1 E.

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.
