Videos are happening

Our website has a small but growing little collection of videos we've made to explain library issues, services, and collections. Many of you have seen Hyun-Duck's great "Peer Review in 5 minutes."

- And there are more at http://www.lib.ncsu.edu/tutorials -- Hyun-Duck's video guides to business databases, E-101 from the Textiles Library, and others -- plus Dre's "Anatomy of a Scholarly Article" (okay, that's not a video, but multimedia nevertheless).

- and Josh Wilson has explained the LibX tool via screencasts at http://www.lib.ncsu.edu/wolfwidgets/libx.html

- Brian Moynihan, a SILS student who did a work study with Kim Duckett, made a video to explain the Library Article Linker.

- and I've taken a shot at screencasts that explain our services to distance education students.

- and I bet I've forgotten some others, right?

Cool new direction.
