Screencasting

This is the screencast link for my information on how to use a blog.

Geez its a mile long is it going to work

Having trouble moving around in blog

Im working on my assignment for the Dig Deeper to show how to use a blog but have trouble moving in my blog!!!

Podcasting class

I just took a podcasting class and will try to put one on this blog this week.

Just joined MLA Libraries in Curriculum SIG

Thought this would be a useful group, and a good way to discuss curriculum topics.

MLA 2008 In Chicago

I will be at the Medical Library Association Annual meeting to learn all sorts of new and exciting 2.0 trends and see how others are developing instruction programs for residents. Ill come back with fresh ideas.

Week 8 - Mashups etc

I created a Rollyo search for evidence based medicine resources at our library. Only Stat!Ref worked. There must be some protection to not allow DynaMed or Essential Evidence be searched with an outside mechanism. I think this is my Rollyo search box:

Yikes maybe not!!! Guess that wasnt it.

I can see how this search set up would be useful, but at this point in time way too time consuming to add it to a central search set up. Im not sure that this is any different than setting up a google search, Im just too inexperienced to know.

This has been a great class and I am suffering from Technology overload, but I have learned alot. Now just to use it more before it all fades away.

Week 7 Podcasting (U-Tube)

I really like the U-Tube for setting up tutorials without video. The video gets bogged down and pauses too many times to make it worthwhile. I found a Cochrane Library tutorial and have added it to my blog. I will attempt to add it to my facebook page since Im trying to keep my facebook library related! The podcasts from Tennessee and Virginia were excellent. This would be very useful in our library. The difficulty in podcasting is setting it up and then keeping it up which is probably every complaint. Might need an extra librarian to do just that!
I dont really get Odeo, but Ive got an account!
