[OPLINLIST] Cassettes & Playaways

[Gerry Vogel]

We have not circulated music cassettes in our adult collection for about
3 years.  We just eliminated the last handful in our J collection.

 

We are steadily whittling down our Books on Cassette and giving the room
to CDs.  We replace what we can if it circs well.

 

Actual #s!

 

Adult BOCassette:

CIRC:  2137 total in 07 (97 in Feb08)

COLLECTION SIZE:  from 1231 in Jan 07 to 986 in Feb 08

 

Adult BOCD

CIRC: 17360 total in 07 (1341 in Feb 08)

COLLECTION SIZE: from 1998 in Jan 07 to 2831 in Feb 08

 

We have not purchased Playaways and don't plan to.

 

We are purchasing some MP3 Audiobooks and we joined Ohio Ebook Project
in February.
