Hello, I have until now, been able to justify keeping this set (at least in our storage area) because it is such a unique resource, and because the filmmakers have told me they are not going to produce it as a DVD set. Each video provide a look at key events in each year that have shaped (U.S.) history. I'm not sure if some of the footage on these tapes is available anywhere else. I'm hoping that one of you will want this set and be willing to pay for the shipping. It'd be a great addition to a history collection. If you are interested, you can contact me off-list and we can talk about this further.

VIDEOLIB is intended to encourage the broad and lively discussion of issues relating to the selection, evaluation, acquisition,bibliographic control, preservation, and use of current and evolving video formats in libraries and related institutions. 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.
