[Videolib] Blu-ray acquisitions in Academic libraries

 I would be very interested to know about policies with regard to acquiring
blu-ray videos. So far I have not acquired any blu-ray titles but I do get
occasional requests for the format. I can't see any particular reason for
acquiring titles in the format and I am interested in what other libraries
have chosen to do with regard to this format. Do people make note of
format-specific policies in their collection development policies?

Thanks,
David Nelson

VIDEOLIB is intended to encourage the broad and lively discussion of issues relating to the selection, evaluation, acquisition,bibliographic control, preservation, and use of current and evolving video formats in libraries and related institutions. It is hoped that the list will serve as an effective working tool for video librarians, as well as a channel of communication between libraries,educational institutions, and video producers and distributors.
