Hi Folks, Completely informal straw poll-- Cadillac Desert continues to be incredibly popular on our campus and I regularly receive inquiries from video librarians and teachers who are desperately trying to purchase new replacements for their VHS tapes (the set is not currently in distribution, though the filmmaker, a UC Berkeley faculty member, has long been hoping to re-release it).
For those who might have convenient access to circ statistics, I would appreciate hearing back off-list by Thursday evening how many times the programs have circulated at your libraries-- and if the series continues to be popular today. Many thanks, Gisele Gisèle Tanasse Head, Media Resources Center 150 Moffitt Library #6000 University of California Berkeley, CA 94720-6000 PH: 510-642-8197 BCAL: nerdpo...@berkeley.edu NOTE: PART TIME SCHEDULE Monday-Thurs 8AM-2PM
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.
