Dennis Doros, I second that emotion! totally agree that A-V preservation should be part of ALA annual programming--and it would be wonderful if AMIA could help out with expertise. The VideoRoundtable is looking for program proposals for 2015 right now. I hope someone will rise to the challenge! MT
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.
