[LM_NET] Purchasing videos

["Belk, Candice Lanham" <CLB1126@ECU.EDU>]

I was just wondering if any other Media Specialist had been encouraged by either 
their principal or school system to not buy any more videos for their collection?  
I have been told that I may not want to build the video collection for two reasons: 
1) United Streaming has now been in place for two years at my school and 2) at some 
point all school may switch to a central tower versus individual towers at 
individual schools.  I even know of one school in my system this year that has 
already been told to remove all VCR's from the classrooms.  I am just wondering if 
anyone else is encountering this situation and what you are doing about it?  I know 
the teachers at my school will not be happy that the video section has not been 
updated again.  Thanks.
