Brian Schottlaender, UC San Diego's university librarian, doesn't just work hard at preserving books. He also is a fan of vinyl records—and has collected 3,000 of them. Watch this video to learn more about his collection.
The video is part of Preservation Week, a time when thousands will turn to libraries across the United States for information and expertise on how to preserve collectibles, photos, family records and other valuable materials. During Preservation Week, themed “Pass it on!,” participating libraries will offer special programs and services that help connect library users with preservation tools; promote the importance of preservation; and enhance knowledge of preservation issues among the general public.
