3800 Videos, 2400 audio books on CD, 2900 audio books on cassette, and 1650 music CDs. That's titles. Since in some cases there are multiple copies, the number of ITEMS we have in these categories is higher, a total of 15,881. (These lists live on the catalog start page.)A lot of these materials were purchased by the Friends of the Library, who raised around $60,000 for the library from their book sales last year, and from the General Obligation Bond funding which you all voted for overwhelmingly in 2002. We can't thank the Friends enough. And thanks to you and your fellow citizens, who understood, when you got into the voting booth in 2002 and again in 2004, that the State's libraries need support.
The DVDs in particluar circulate feverishly. Pollock has already been out 32 times this year.
