I recently assumed responsibilities for administering the Video Library and am in the process of updating our database to match our current inventory. I have discovered many DVDs that were listed in the inventory but are either checked out or missing. See below for each of those lists.
Please look over the "checked out" list below and if you have any of those titles, please return them at an upcoming meeting. Also, if you see your name on the list please let me know if that information is accurate. Much of that status information is old and may not reflect actual possession of the video. Please also review the "Missing Videos" list below and let me know if you know of the whereabouts of any of those titles.
Thanks much for your help,
David Wynne
Please Email or call me at 513-708-4990
