Thing 23 - YouTube

I realy enjoyed viewing some of the videos that were posted on YouTube. Some of them were really pretty good. I found YouTube to be pretty easy to use and search for videos that interest me. One of the things that I disliked about YouTube is that I found the website to be a little busy for me. There was way too much to look at the same time. I chose the video that I did because I love humor and I wanted something that related to work.

I can see the library possibly using YouTube as a way of advertising programs by including a small portion of a video from say a program. This can be a great way to advertise for future programs. It may be a way for patrons to see what we do for booktalks, storytimes, etc. It can be great for publicity too for storytime providers that we hire out for special programs and events.
