Do you like to relax watching television or films—like multiple seasons of “30 Rock,” the “Big Bang Theory,” “Downton Abbey;” movies like “Argo;” or the entire “Star Wars,” “Twilight,” or “Star Trek” series. Now you can borrow these and more for your enjoyment from the new Leisure Viewing Collection—Movies and TV Series in the Reading Room that houses the Leisure Reading Collection, first floor Pattee Library, central, near the library’s mall entrance. The DVD display is at the far end of the room on the right. Items can be checked out at the Commons Services Desk for a loan period of one week.

This initiative is a collaboration between Library Learning Services (LLS) and the Music and Media Center of the Arts and Humanities Library. LLS has taken the lead on implementing and developing the collection. Amanda Clossen and Glenn Masuchika are the selectors for the collection. The ordering and cataloging of DVDs will proceed as with other DVD collections in the Music and Media Center, the branches, and the campuses. The Music and Media Center will process the DVDs into security cases and prepare the artwork for the cases.
