So I went to Technorati to do the Adventure exercise and I read that the Exeter Public Library in Rhode Island has partnered with Netflix to bring more DVDs to their patrons. At first I thought that it was a pretty dumb idea but after I thought about it for a few minutes. I think that in some cases it would prove to be pretty efficient and helpful. There have not been many times where I have not been able to fill a patron request in regards to a DVD here at OCLS but in the smaller systems like Osceola where the DVD supply is limited, this system of using Netflix as a backup may actually prove quite beneficial. I will be interested in reading how the partnership between Exeter and Netflix works out in the future. If you are interested in reading about this, here is the link:
