contents Video Reviews: A Content Analysis of Selections Appearing in "The Video Rating Guide for Libraries,""Booklist" and "Library Journal" for 1991. Joynt, Jennifer Lynn Comparative Analysis Content Analysis Criteria Decision Making Evaluation Methods Librarians Library Material Selection Literature Reviews Periodicals Videodisks Videotape Recordings A total of 450 video reviews in three journals, published in 1991, were randomly selected and examined through a content analysis, described and compared. This study was undertaken to answer the following questions: What do these journals provide for librarians who have to make informed decisions on video purchases? What criteria do the journals use to evaluate a video? Are there vital differences between reviews in different journals? "The Video Rating Guide for Libraries" makes reference to editing in over 75 percent of its reviews; the other two did not come close to this rate. "The Guide" also delivered substantially longer reviews written by people with a broad range of expertise. The reviewers of "Booklist" made more comparisons between the video under examination and those previously reviewed. An appendix presents codes for content analysis. (Contains 17 tables and 25 references.) (Author/SLD)
