New Teen DVDs February

February Teen DVD orders:

League of Their Own with Tom Hanks & Geena Davis
Thirty Seconds Over Tokyo with Spencer Tracy
Splash: 20th Anniversary edition
The Fall of the House of Usher/The Pit and the Pendulum with Vincent Price.
I'm thinking of the 200th anniversary of Edgar Allan Poe
Count of Monte Cristo
Great Santini Robert Duvall
Horse Whisperer Robert Redford

Now is a good time to think about the Teen collection profile you would like to see in the next fiscal year. Think about system wide collection needs for teens. What have you been asked for again and again?
We'll talk about it all at a future meeting - I think in April.
