Step #3: YouTube April 11, 2008

My very, very favorite youtube is Paul Potts’ first tv performance.

We went hiking in Zion Utah over spring break and I found a cool one of the scenery we saw on one of our hikes (there was no music playing when we were there).

Some possible library use ideas -

Last Week at the Library – clips of some of our great past, adult programs.

Staff book chats – staff picks a favortie new bestseller (or old favorite) and gives a one-minute mini booktalk on the title.

 

 

Step #2: Flickr April 1, 2008

In theory flickr sounds easy, but having never used it, I didn’t find the directions that user friendly.  I can see the library using flickr to highlight special exhibits (upstairs lobby), seasonal displays, active and interesting adult programs, special services (that might be unknown), new locations and additions to different departments (i.e. moving the DVDs).

Possible tags – programs, exhibits, displays, services, collections, departments

I don’t use a digital camera and can barely remember where I left my last disposable – so I don’t see myself using flickr for personal use at this point.

Writing this blog is new to me - although I’ve recently spent way too many hours searching decorating blogs for the perfect paint color.  I guess we’re not gonna share BM paint colors – but I’d love to know what everyone’s reading – great way to booktalk!
