I’m working on adding more examples of library ‘casting projects to the CastingKit Delicious links today in preparation for my presentation at WAPL later this week.
One of my favorite vodcast examples is the new “Welcome to the Library” video series created by the Multnomah County Library.
Multnomah County is home to a linguistically and culturally diverse [...]

Before creating any kind of ‘casting project, you should consider the legal and copyright implications for what you want to include in the recording.

I attended the Public Library Association (PLA) conference in Minneapolis a couple of weeks ago and attended a great session by Michelle Jeske from the Denver Public Library. She included some great examples of what libraries are doing with audio and video on the web, and since then I’ve run across some other blog posts with additional [...]

In the grant proposal, one of the things on my to-do list is to evaluate online storage options for the ‘casting projects that will be created.
