No, Matt, you are decidedly not alone. Stating opinions is one thing; attacking is another. It’s not open dialogue when someone is slammed and hit with flat-out judgments. Unless the goal is to get a videolib member to never post again, perhaps a gentler, more inquisitive approach would be better?!

As usual, videolib provides a lively forum for discussion, and this one in particular is fascinating. But I must say, I'm quite disturbed by the vitriolic tone of some of the responses as well as the judging and the public bullying that Maureen and Darby are having to endure. Am I the only one?

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.
