#98: Check your PAC's settings for captioning

Try to make it easy for someone who needs captioned video to find what they are looking for in your online catalog. Most bibliographic records for audiovisual materials purchased from major vendors include information about the existence and extent of captioning, but often those lines in the MARC records aren’t even displayed in the public catalog except under the MARC or ‘librarian’s’ view, and if they are, they are still not searchable even in the advanced search functions. Look at your ILS’s settings and talk to your tech services people (if you aren’t one) to see if it’s possible to make it easier for people who only want captioned video to limit their searches in your catalog.
