Re: [CODE4LIB] Bandwidth control

[CODE4LIB] Bandwidth control

A quick and dirty search of the list archives turned up this topic from 5 years ago. I am wondering what libraries (especially those with limited resources) are doing today to control or moderate bandwidth, e.g., where viewing video sites uses up excessive amounts of bandwidth? Thanks for any hel
