Podcasts

Wow.. what a lot of time that took.. and I had "technical" difficulties with ABC pod casts, but got some of the library ones. I can see the use for some library members, especially youth, in presenting views; book clubs in allowing others who may not be actually at the meeting to hear and imput to the discussion; and in staff training, especially for refresher training or remote access. I can not see myself as using it at present.

answer boards

I have been looking at this and don't see myself as an answer board person. To all those entusiastic young things out their in library land, definitely a chance to make your intellectual mark! Certainly more interesting than myspace and facebook, but just as time wasting if you keep chasing after the items. Moving right along......

Friday 2nd May

Just moving along. now in week 7.. and time is getting away from me!
Will not have time today to actually delic.us but have enjoyed watching the video and checking some of the other libraries use of these.
I can see a great use for this when doing reference queries, but being in a small branch, we don't get lots of in depth questions. But now I know who does, I will be going to their ref pages fairly quickly.
