Yes, it was very corny, but strangely, unlike most orientation videos, it had some good ideas, and the acting wasn't bad, either.
Does anyone know if this video is available online somewhere? I'd like to have my staff watch it over. I'm getting ready to go over shelf-reading; weeding; shifting; etc procedures, which quite obviously have not been done for some time here.
Thanks, in advance!
edit:
It's produced by Columbia University Libraries Preservation Committee!
No word yet on an online version.

Hey, whatever happened to citing your source? I need to know which arc the pic is from! (Yes, a couple minutes on OG would find it. I'm feeling lazy tonight. It's a holiday weekend!)
OMGoodness!!! I saw that one last year in class! It was so hard to keep a straight face. I don't know if you can still buy it, but perhaps your local library has a copy?

I'm sorry. I'm so sorry!
It's not from a Doctor Who story arc.
Pic from:
The Hound of the Baskervilles (BBC-TV,1982) Tom Baker as Sherlock Holmes, Terrence Rigby as Dr. Watson.
Often praised as one of the most faithful adaptations of the book.

We found a good original and placed the video on the Columbia YouTube channel.

Enjoy.
