Audio-Visual Collections

Videos, DVDs, and CDs are purchased to support the curriculum and the recreational and entertainment interests of the Deerfield Academy community.

The CD Collection is located on the Main Floor near the Circulation Desk.

Videos and DVDs intended primarily for entertainment are located on the Main Floor. Patrons select a title from the rack and present the empty cover or case at the Circulation Desk to check out these items.

Videos and DVDs that support the curriculum are assigned a call number and integrated into the circulating collection by subject so that they can be identified along with other materials on the same subject.

Audio-visual materials described in the Online Catalog with a location of "Technical Process" are not accessible on the public shelves and should be requested at the Circulation Desk by call number.

Videos and DVDs are loaned for one week. CDs are loaned for four weeks.
