MEDIA SOFTWARE

A. GENERAL COLLECTION

The Central Library maintains a collection of tapes and discs.

Faculty needing to use particular films in class should put them on reserve by going on line to Acorn. This will assure that the films will be available when needed for class. Any teacher in the College may request a title to be shown in his/her class by calling the LRC (2-4855). Students giving presentations in A&S classes may schedule use in the same manner. The LRC delivers the necessary equipment along with the film or tape and picks everything up when class is finished.

If you have a class in a room where we cannot provide playback, please call us and we may be able to find another room for you or arrange a night showing.

If you own a film that you want students to view, you may put it on reserve in the Government Information Media Services (GIMS).

Anyone in the University community may view videotapes at the GIMS during their regular hours.

B. RENTAL AND PURCHASE OF SOFTWARE

1. Standard Procedure for Software Acquisition.

All requests for the purchase of films should be submitted to Amy Stewart-Mailhiot in the University Library.

2. 16 mm film rental

Faculty may request that the LRC rent a 16 mm film when the film is not available on VHS or DVD.
