These are great, Ross! And good point, no need to reinvent the wheel, especially if you have little resources to begin with!

Thanks for sharing the title of the book, Jeff. I'd love to hear what other types of software people are using, particularly open source solutions.

We'll be doing a webinar in Februray on open source, where there will be an open time at the end for more brainstorming and conversation. Not on the calendar yet, so you heard it here first!

It depends on your website. The video may be embedded within a page or open in a new window/tab. A question the tech or website person could better answer.

Kathy,
I work for a Lib Consortium so my patrons are actually member libraries in Colorado. We have created rather long in depth tutorials for members and have a separate page listing them. You are welcome to check them out and gather any ideas from them,

You will notice we have also received permission to use some tutorials from other organizations. No need to re invent the wheel sometimes!

Where to place tutorials, especially when they start adding up? A separate page?

Post your questions or ideas that were sparked by the November 12 webinar 24/7 Librarianship: Reaching patrons with digital tutorials.

Thanks, Sheila! We're plugging away at getting as many of our webinars recorded and embedded on the archive pages to continue to make it more friendly for our users.

REALLY like direct embed of webinar display on archive page. Such an improvement from chasing around Wimba links until you get to the launch page.

Also, you can play with the links to related resources in other tabs/windows while archive runs in the background.

thanks for creating this archive page.

Continue the discussion started during the webinar. Do you feel ready to create a technology petting zoo in your library system? What do you need to get started?

If you didn't make it to the webinar, you can view the archived version here.
