We have an auditorium, not really a theater, which holds about 100. Limited 
lighting control, but the house lights do dim all the way down, seats are 
bolted swivel chairs with retractable writing boards. So it's used for classes, 
guest lectures, presentations, meetings, heartfelt political debates, panel 
discussions and film series (video, not film). And possibly 993 other uses .... 
Ideas?

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.
