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.
