This summer we have completed a project that we hope will make it easier for you to browse and find what you're looking for in our audiovisual collection.
The first aisle of the audiovisual collection now includes major motion pictures and films. They are arranged in alphabetical order, so if you know the name of the film you're looking for, it's as easy as singing your ABC's.
Across the aisle is our collection of non-fiction or documentary materials. These are now arranged in call number order, just like our books. Why did we do this, you ask? Now you can see what videos we have in a particular subject area. For example, all of our yoga videos are shelved together in the RA 781.7 area. Before they were spread throughout the collection alphabetically.
Our collection is small enough that you can still browse to find what you're looking for. If you find that you don't know the call number for the area you're looking for (don't worry, we don't expect you to!) you can search the catalog for the subject heading you are interested in, then limit your search to the "Audiovisual" material type and "Wayne" location.
Or... you can just ask us for help! Often Lisa can suggest a good audiovisual title on your topic since she is the one who selects all of the AV materials for the library.
Don't forget that we also have many, many more video titles available digitally through the OhioLINK Digital Media Center.
