Re: [Videolib] Who do you report to?
Head of Reference Services is my direct supervisor. I also interact with the Collection Development Librarian, although I have the final and usually only say on all Media orders. No one else has much time to have an opinion. One of the Acquisitions paraprofessional full-time workers doesn't report to me, but does all my ordering. I also interact with cataloging quite a bit for faculty orders. It seems to work well.

Re: [Videolib] Who do you report to?
A late post, but, ditto here. I report to the Director of the Center for Educational Media in the College of Education. Here's how: We opened as part of a grand design in 1975 as the distribution component of a Learning Resources Center that also featured creation and production of academic support programming (curriculum design, photographic studio, graphics design, television studio, equipment services). Our director reported to the Dean of Learning Resources who reported to the VPAA. Over the years the grand design fractured, and our director moved up the administrative chain to report directly to the VPAA. Over the next 15+ years our director's position gradually moved down the administrative chain to Associate VPAA, to Dean of the College of Education, to a director under the Dean of COE. We landed in the College of Education because our building was given to the college in the early 90s (they did not have one, and part of the university's core mission is training teachers). No money/space were available to move us somewhere else, certainly not into the main library. So, here we are. Enjoyed seeing the varied permutations of reporting structures!

Re: [Videolib] Who do you report to?
My situation here at the University of Southern California is perhaps rather unique. I am a not media librarian--at least not in the sense that many on this list appear to be. Among my responsibilities is that I am the selector for our Leavey Libray's video collection, which entails each year selecting dvds with a budget of around $45,000--sometimes less, often more. In addition, I am the Library's selector for a myriad of different disciplines--including Theater, Dance, Historiography, Asian History, African History, Australian/Oceania History, British History, Middle East History, West European History, Holocaust Studies, GLBT Studies, and Library Science. Because my office is located in our university's political science library, and that I do reference work there, my reviewing officer is the head of the political science library. Because of the work I do with the Leavey Library, I am often in communication with that library's director, but I do not in any sense report to her. It is all rather crazy at times.

Re: [Videolib] Who do you report to?
Our media operations has always been supported by the undergraduate reserves department. Until four years ago, reserves reported to the director of the history and humanities division -- reserves now reports to the director of access services. I continue to report to the director of the history and humanities division -- we are all subject selectors and public service librarians. I continue to be the main selector for the media collection and to some extent less involved in the operations -- however this is difficult to nearly impossible since expertise is required for many questions that arise e.g., streaming, copyright, public performance, VHS to DVD preservation project, etc. -- I am directly involved with these issues. Both directors report to an associate university librarian (one of three) that reports to the university librarian.

Re: [Videolib] Who do you report to?
Coordinator of Collections, who reports to the Library Director. Lori: shouldn't the question be tied to the size of the library, and whether Media Librarians are the sole selectors or whether subject liaison librarians also are responsible for selection.

Re: [Videolib] Who do you report to?
Librarians have faculty status, so we all report to the dean of the library (who reports to VP Academic Affairs). Media services are part of the public access team (Circ, ILL, media) but that's an informal designation. No asst/assoc deans in our hierarchy.

I answer to no one! Seriously, I report to the head of Academic Program Services for the Tempe campus.
