Videos and DVDs
_ All our VHS and DVD collection has been catalogued and given a Call Number. Therefore, students can search for an item as they would a book on our online Novanet catalogue.
The VHS and DVD collections are integrated into the General Collection upstairs.
Any CDs accompanying a book are found inside the back cover of the corresponding book.
The VHS and DVD collections are checked-out in the same manner as items from our General Collection, with the due dates corresponding to their patron status.
DVDs can be desensitized without harm, but VHS should not be desensitized, as it will erase the contents of the tape.
