Please note in the future, when possible ESU #8 Instructional Resource Center will purchase resources in digital format. We are currently purchasing rights for some of our video titles that are highly used to be converted from VC’s to DV’s and in the future this is how all program titles will be purchased. However, you may still get copies of most of these programs copied on video.
