In the interest of designing a digital library to try to resolve the conflict between multimedia and credible information, I couldn't help but get hung up on the fact that the Cambridge library circulates DVDs of new releases, etc much like a Blockbuster store. I realize it's a "browsing" library but I couldn't get passed the idea of a library as a video rental store. Anyway, in milling around looking for info regarding DVDs and libraries, I found some guidelines on the ALA site. It's really not very exciting but the issues with use and copyrights is kind of interesting...
