What I found

We were asked to search the term "school library" in YouTube. Did our teacher know that Gale had been doing a contest called "I Love my Library" so there was an abundance of Library love vids on YouTube? Perhaps so. Still, after watching several (more than I'd like to admit to, and many that made me cringe,) I DID find this one, called Thank You Note from Green Gables Elementary School, which made me smile.

I think it's really interesting the way libraries are starting to use YouTube to market their stuff and themselves. What you find today on YouTube about libraries is very different than what you would have found even 6 months ago. It shows that libraries are starting to really think about taking on the technology and making it work for them.

yes, I'm sure I looked for "library" vids a few months back, and didn't see all of these options. I also find it interesting that Thompson Gale did this huge promotion via YouTube. Apparently they are planning another one soon that will involve Flickr.
