I thought this might be a good thing to bring in newcomers, if the library 
would allow us to slap a sticker on the video box stating "Donated by The 
Barony of Elfsea, Kingdom of Ansteorra, SCA. http://www.elfsea.org" ... Or 
something along those lines. My thoughts are that if someone watches this 
video and become interested in playing, tyhen they would have our contact 
information convientently located on the fron of the box. Also, if we donate 
a few to the local libraries and we have a newcomer write and ask "What do 
you do?", then we can tell them to go to the X library and check out that 
video.

Would there be a problem with doing something like this? Ideas? Suggestions?
