HIT: video MARC records online

["Jane T. Hohn" <jhohn@PEN.K12.VA.US>]

Dear LM_NETters,

I hope all school openings go smoothly for you this year.

Here is the information I've received to my question re: MARC
records for video online.  I included all replies, even though
some were repetitive.  If I receive more replies, I will also
post those.  Thanks, one and all, for this information.
