Gary, As someone who has used this listserv for the place to go for video and copyright issues, I want to say that you will be sorely missed. I could always count on you to give a fair and critical perspective to whatever issues were being discussed. It isn't easy navigating the the world of media, but you made it much more bearable.
I have a feeling the whole 'vibe' of this listserv may be changing once you have retired. Hopefully we will all continue to use this wonderful resource and build on your legacy of great information and lively discussions. I wish you happy times, happy tunes, and most of all, much relaxation, and the opportunity to do exactly what you want to do, when you want to do it! Good luck in your retirement!

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.
