A complete video reference with detailed listings for over 120,000 programs on 62,000 videos - thousands more than other references. BOWKER'S COMPLETE VIDEO DIRECTORY merges Bowker's new Education-Special Interest video database with our acclaimed Variety's Complete Home Video Directory database. The result: a new hardbound, 2-volume directory designed especially for libraries, schools, & video resources centers that lists virtually every video in every format - VHS, Beta, 3/4" U-matic, 8mm, & laserdisc. Unrivalled for: practicality - it offers separate volumes (Entertainment & Education-Special Interest) for ready focus on the types of videos you need for your collection; comprehensiveness - it brings you thousands more available videos than any other source; value - it's significantly less expensive than the competition; diversity - it gives you ordering information on more foreign films, Spanish-language films, silent films, & feature films than anyone else, includes full series & performance rights information, & notes international standards such as PAL & SECAM where applicable; selection guidance - it offers review citations for acquisitions assistance, & provides information on preview tapes when available; access - it contains 15 indexes for ease of research - including Title, Genre, Cast-Director, & more.
