Hi librarians Following Green Planet efforts, to help the Planet I'm also trying to save the trees, very small saving . I suppose some of you received a DVD from me and wondered why I use such cheap packing. When I started to send DVDs I sent them in casing in envelopes lined inside with plastic bubbles coating (Made in China), I got complaints that the casing arrived cracked and DVD was scratched, Now a days I send in brown paper envelopes (Recycled paper) and put a piece of carton on both sides of the DVD casing (I use used carton boxes from the supermarket) for additional protection I put the DVD in the small DVD size casing into the regular casing, since I had not got any complaints. I don't save money on the packing but I'm proud to my small effort in recycling . cheers Nahum Laufer http://onedayafterpeace.com/index.php http://docsforeducation.com/ Sales Docs for Education Erez Laufer Films Holland st 10 Afulla 18371 Israel

We are looking for - clean stickerless cases with no imprints (eg "Made in Mexico"..I have seen this) - black, white or clear - holds 1 DVD only can be standard size OR slimcase. (this would work well for both parties if you receive NEW DVDs in standard packaging, then have to disassemble them to put into security cases etc) HOW IT WORKS - You save up 50-100 in a box, and weight it. - Email suza...@greenplanetfilms.org give the weight and address and we will mail you a postage paid label for the box. We are especially excited to send our new acquisition TRASHED WITH JEREMY IRONS in your "used" cases! Thank you for considering this REUSE project. See you at the NMM Sincerely Suzanne Harle ____________ Suzanne Harle Founder/Executive Director GREEN PLANET FILMS PO Box 247 Corte Madera, CA 94976 415.377.5471 mobile www.greenplanetfilms.org www.greenplanetstream.org a nonprofit organization End of videolib Digest, Vol 71, Issue 37 **************************************** 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.
