<P>Mary,</P>
<P>Our Library has followed the same route as Ripon PL with a dummy c=
ase out front and a second case with the disc stored in a staff-only =
area. We run a color copy of the DVD case artwork so both cases=
have that info; booklets are not copied, they stay with the dis=
c. This is a great method against shoplifting but we are quickl=
y running out of staff space for storing cases with discs. DVD =
cases are nice and thin, but keep in mind that you'll eventually run =
low on space. </P>
<P>I have not been to the Undergrad Library in a few years but I don'=
t remember there being a whole lot of space there by the AV area.&nbs=
p; Unless the computer lab in the NE corner was moved out y=
ou will run into the same problem eventually.</P>

; Subject: [Videolib] DVD security <BR>> <BR>> <BR>> Hi all,=
<BR>> We've typically had a closed stacks collection of dvds, and=
have <BR>> recently created a browsable, circulating collection o=
f dvds for <BR>> students out on the floor. I'm hoping to get sugg=
estions for <BR>> specific <BR>> types of security that will wo=
rk with a 3M system already in place <BR>> and <BR>> that isn't=
a full overlay on the dvds, as many of these discs are <BR>> doub=
le-sided... <BR>> Thanks, <BR>> Mary <BR>> <BR>> -- <BR>&=
