'Casting @ OWLS
I've been busy working on our "Enhancing Library Services via Podcasts, Screencasts, and Vodcasts" LSTA grant this week. I decided to start a blog to track the progress that I make, so I don't have to reconstruct everything I've done for the 6-month and year-end grant reports. It will be a nice resource to point grant reviewers to, and I also needed a place to collect all of the information I'll be gathering to support the use of the 'Casting Kit once it's ready to go. In addition, I thought it might come in handy for other systems who might like to provide a similar service to their libraries in the future. So anyway, if you're interested in what's going on with this grant, feel free to visit the new blog 'Casting @ OWLS and let me know if you have any questions. I'll continue to post new info there as I work on the project.
Do you have ideas for podcasts, screencasts, or vodcasts your library might like to produce? Share your ideas or questions in the comments.
