Hello, We are adding more and more DVDs to our collection and are exploring ways to secure them. We currently apply circular tattle-tapes to our CD-ROMs and we put our musical CDs in protective plastic cases. Both are freely accessible in the library. We'd be interested to know if, and how, other libraries are protecting their DVDs, using circular tattle-tapes, protective cases, or by storing the disk behind the circulation desk or in another non accessible place. We are looking at the practical and financial aspects, but we are also concerned with the environmental impact of our choice. Any comment or information would be greatly appreciated. (You can respond to me directly) Thank you very much, Charlotte Dionne ____________ Charlotte Dionne Chef du Service du traitement documentaire Bibliothèque Champlain Université de Moncton Moncton (N.-B.)
