[OPLINLIST] interfiling videos with non-fiction books

[Evelyn Janoch]

Rocky River has filed adult NF DVDs and videos with the print
non-fiction collection for several years now. We also made the move to
save space. It makes sense to find the travel or how-to videos with
books on the same subject. Most patrons like this arrangement, but for
the few who just wanted to "browse" in the NF video, we created a
permanent display of random titles. The display is quite popular and
often leads people over to the print non-fiction area for more on the
same subject.  Our circulation of NF DVDs and videos has increased
dramatically since we made the change.

Hi Everyone,

Can anyone gift me some thoughts, comment on interfiling your
non-fiction videos with your non-fiction books. We are really tight and
need to make more room for dvd's and books on cd.    1. Do you interfile
your non-fiction videos with your non-fiction books?  if so - has usage
gone up? do patrons like this arrangement?  a quick reply to my email
with any comments, thoughts and ideas would be appreciated. Thanks so
much!
