On trial basis | Midland Public Library begins cassette collection by Shirley Whittington Hockey or badminton instruction, shostakovitch played by the Oxford String Quartet, conversations with Canadian authors - all are now available on video cassettes at the Midland Public Library. It's part of a one month trial program organized by Michelle Gauthier, under the supervision of Catherine MacKenzie, reference librarian. Michelle has just completed her first year of a Master of Library Science degree, and she's en- thusiastic about the possibilities of the cassette collection. 'Most of the tapes are in colour," she says. "They have been produced by the Communications Authority, and have been shown on Channel 19." Tapes are viewed on a full sized television screen, and can be used by groups or individuals. The "stop-or- repeat"' feature on the video tape replay (UTR) enables viewers to review any section of the tape in which they are particularly in- terested. Use of the video tape cassettes and the TV receiver is open to anyone in the community, without charge. The unit is portable, although bulky (50 Ibs.), and it can be taken out of the library, although Michelle suggests it is probably easier for groups to use it in the reference room at the A display of the tapes and the capabilities of the program was held at the library Saturday afternoon. Thirty-five tapes covering travel, history, consumer affairs, cooking, psychology, family structure, music and Canadiana, are now available, and more are on order. An OECA cataloge us available so that particular tapes may be ordered. Of particular interest are the Polka Dot Door series, and a 90 minute special on China. Midland is the first library in the region to try the video cassette program. It is one more step toward making the community library a multi-media resource centre, readily available for Designer Joanne Brook Desig Are you interested in design and colour, as. applied to crafts and decorating?
