They didn't demo any of those vids, and I just went to the BPL website and couldn't find them. I also found, at the BPL site, that they're still advertising last summer's SRC, which seems a little . . . umm . . . non-dynamic. Maybe those Youtube book reviews are just a myth?

Would you know the link to the Boston Youtube vids? Found entries in YouTube for "boston youtube" and "boston library" but not too sure which is the one though. Cheers.

I think that is going to be difficult to do but essential. There are new rules. I think it'll require new thinking and an organizational shift. In most cases, the kids understand the technology better than we do- they should be leading or at least have a voice in these new initiatives. -Zander S.
