When I hear my son giggling at his computer, I know he is watching YouTube videos…usually involving silly cat tricks. From this source he has learned important life skills such as deaf karaoke. There are many more informative lessons available, but a lot of fun stuff, too. Check out this video made by the Teen Advisory Board promoting the Antioch Library:

The Contra Costa County Library offers audio books for children in a podcast format. The link to the Pod Blog is available on the web site:

I would like to see videos and podcasts to promote library services. These tools could be used to instruct users about the databases, catalog searches, library services, and popular programs.
Having said that, I must now conquer my reluctance to be photographed if I want to put my face where my keyboard is, so to speak.
