Same here, using Gobi for book orders. Can't see it working well for videos even if they were in the db.
For feature films, I use Midwest Tape (cart) or Amazon (wishlist) and send electronically to Acq. Rush orders - I give them printout of page 1 of the Amazon listing. Educational titles - I have a PDF version of our order form, so can type on it and leave the repetitive info in place for printing. Acq is also okay with printout of batch of DVDs in an online cart from vendor's site, so often just give them that nowadays.

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.
