I was just wondering...the libraries that do circulate video games, what types of security is used to prevent theft of the games?

We put the same security strips on our PS2 games that we put on DVDs. But we also keep all our games behind the circulation desk, because we borrow games from a circulating kit of games available through our regional library system. (Patrons bring up a card with the game picture on it and we trade that for the game.) So I don't actually purchase very many games right now; I borrow 20 every 3 months from this kit and then send them back for a new batch. It's been really helpful to start our game collection.
