Regarding your enquiry about a video database. Since replying to you
personally, I have found that Video Plus Direct do have a searchable
internet catalogue of 17,000 videos on their own web site, which might be
more what you are after. I thought other members of lis-link might find
this useful too.
It is available at:
http://www.videoplusdirect.co.uk/vpxb/main.htm
As I told Sandra, the BBC uses Video Plus Direct to reroute all the
enquiries they get about videos and they are pretty efficient.
Hope this is useful.

We don't buy enough videos to justify buying a commercial database -
if such a thing exists - but it would be useful to be able to check
details from time to time. Most of the videos we buy are films.
Many thanks.
