[Publib] Using YouTube

[Pat McMahon]

Dear Colleagues,

This enquiry comes from Ireland.

I am wondering if any Library Directors or Senior Librarians in the United States are using YouTube as method of getting their vision for their library service out to the wider public. I am thinking of how your President-elect Barack Obama uses YouTube on a regular basis.

I am thinking in investing in a good quality HD camcorder.

I would then put on YouTube short statements from myself on what our library service is trying to achieve, and I would also post on YouTube brief filmed presentations of what goes on in individual branch libraries.

If this kind of thing is already happening in some public libraries in the United States perhaps some of the kind contributors to Publib would let me know.

A Happy New Year to all Publib readers.

Every good wish,

Pat McMahon,
County Librarian,
Galway County Libraries,
IRELAND.
