They go by many names, VHS, Videocassettes, Videotapes and for nearly 40 years they were the standard for home viewing entertainment. Today, VHS tapes have faded with the advent of the DVD, however many people (including myself) still own videotapes especially of family events.
Now patrons have the ability to view those family movies, or watch one of the many videocassettes on local history from the Archives’ collection. Located in the back corner near the microfilm readers is a new space dedicated to observing videotapes, so come in and check it out!
