Our non-reference CDs are shelved in a staff area but do  circulate -- they
are tattle taped for security becuase we don't have circulation downstairs
in the art library. We also have a Mac in the art library for looking at
the CDs (with headphones) for people without the proper equipment at home.
We don't have a similarly equipped PC for PC-based titles though.

The items are fully cataloged & our cataloger gives them an "interactive
multimedia" subheading so they can be browsed digitally even though they
can't be browsed on the shelves. Attracting people to them is not a problem
because they are featured in at least 2 courses, including a major
introductory course to media.
