[Libs-Or] Year on DVD spine labels

[Bob Jones]

We do not include dates in call numbers or labels for audio or video recordings.

You could end up having different dates each time a title is reissued, especially with new edits, enhanced formats, Blu-Ray vs. regular DVD, etc.  Unless you are supporting some movie or video curriculum it might not be worth the effort.

Subject: [Libs-Or] Year on DVD spine labels

Hi,

Do your libraries put years on spine labels for DVDs?  And if so, what year do you put?  The year it was originally released or the year it was put on DVD?  (This only matters for movies created before DVDs existed.)  For instance, the movie Psycho, use 1960 (year released) or 1999 (year on DVD)?

Thanks,
Katie
