> We have been out of the tape business for some time now. I'd actually caution those that still have any circulating - in that old tape media breaks down significantly, especially with the kind of use it may have seen in a public library. This is manifest by icky, clogging gunk on playback heads and pinch rollers in a patron's player. VHS are the worst, but audio tapes are not much better.

> We are starting to tag our collection for a move to RFID.  Regarding media items, specifically dvds and cds, I'd like to know how some of you chose to tag them.  Did you tag the dvd itself, or the case?  Or Both?  If you chose not to tag the dvd, did you make a decision to keep security cases on them?  If you only tagged the case, have you experienced a lot of theft of untagged dvds?  Thanks
