Michael Porter and I like to make videos. Music videos. Music videos about libraries! Remember our last one?
Well … we have a new one coming out called Library 101! We plan to debut it at Internet Librarian 2009 (during our presentation about making videos on October 28), and we are pretty stoked about it, too! Why, you ask? Well…
- The music rocks harder than last time
- We have turned up the video production a few notches (Michael is turning into quite the video producer!)
- We have a website complete with essays from some amazing people
- We found a sponsor (thanks, Information Today!)
But most important – the message. Library 101 tells a story. A story about the evolution of libraries and librarians. Historically, we grew and evolved to a certain point. Some of us are continuing to evolve, others are not quite there yet but are working to get there.
The goal of our song, our video, the website and essays? To inspire you to grow, to evolve, and to change your communities!
Michael does a great job of explaining Library 101 on Maurice Coleman’s regular T is for Training podcast. Take a listen. And more importantly, take a listen and a look on October 28 – I will post the video as soon as it goes live, so stay tuned!
