Incremental accession numbers work for us. I concur. I did the LC thing with our K-12 collection way back when and the library users (teachers) did not like it at all. (The school librarians did like it, but that¹s another story :) One year later, back to the subject headings and accession numbers. Best Rick Faaberg
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.
