My K-12 building began to implement a video delivery system called Teknet =
about 2 years ago.  I am the elementary librarian.  We have approximately =
600 students and 65 staff members.  The system has never been completed.  =
In the elementary wing, 44% of the rooms do not have any equipment.  There =
are only 4 VCRs available on the Teknet for the entire staff and they are =
located in the high school wing.  I have asked my sup't about completion =
and am not getting anywhere.  I asked about buying VCRs on carts, and he =
says that is outdated equipment.  My questions:
Is anyone else in this situation, with a partially completed video =
delivery system?
How do you schedule the VCRs?  Who is responsible for taking care of =
putting in and taking out the videos?  If you don't have a flexible =
schedule, where do you find time to do this?
Are regular VCRs outdated?

Thanks.
