Librarians on YouTube
Tonight I went to the InfoTubey Awards. Information Today hosted the awards for libraries that created videos on YouTube to promote their services. They chose 5 winners from approximately 60 entries.
Here are the winners:
New Jersey State Library:

And since the library from Canada could not afford to send someone to Virginia, here is the Acceptance Speech: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nntN8J5TSxU
PALINET sponsored the snacks and coffee, which was a fantastic idea by the marketing team.
And since my co-worker Catherine likes the book cart drill teams, I thought I'd feature this one from Pitt: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RFtjnxm_wiQ
And one that I think it pretty clever: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vrtYdFV_Eak

Thanks for the mention! The link you have for NJ goes to an earlier version, could you replace with this link?

Thanks Nancy! I have updated the link!
Here are the three reasons I love the library...
1.) Free access to information... books, CDs, DVDs, internet, etc.
2.) Great speakers!
3.) Friendly and encouraging library staff.
