This weeks activity involved YouTube and Podcasting. YouTube was very interesting, you can find a video on just about anything, some funny and serious. Some videos I found describe the how different technologies are affecting library. Follow these links to see how.

YouTube would be excellent tool to use to promote Library events. It also could be used to give tours of the University as well as the library. Podcasting is another tool library could use to help patron. I found Podcasting the better of the two in that it provides feedback and have more options for users.
Here some links that I thought were very interesting in relation to Libraries and podcasts
