From: "Williams, Pauline" <Williamp_at_montevallo.edu>
I would like to hear from other libraries about their Collection Development
Policies/Practices in relation to Videos and DVD's. At present we are
collecting videos because we have not yet purchased DVD playing equipment.
Recently, we have had a few faculty requests for DVD's. Some of these titles
are only available in DVD format. With the market apparently becoming so
saturated with DVD's, it may be time for us to reconsider our policy.
You may respond to me privately and if there is enough interest, I will
summarize for the list.
