There was so much on YouTube that I could have spent hours looking around. I found one of my favorite commercials there...not too useful for our library but it made me laugh out loud.
Another YouTube video that I enjoyed was one of the most viewed in 2007. It's appropriately called "Otters Holding Hands."
I can see using YouTube in the library to promote programs. Barring time and creativity restraints, we could make our own "commercials" and post them on our homepage. We could make a video "scrapbook" of other programs but would have to be sensitive to privacy issues expressed by both staff and customers alike. As I was looking around, I found some educational videos that teach something, which could be another way our customers could get the content or information they want or need.

Yeah, YouTube can be addictive and a real time waster. I've heard that teens no longer watch tv, they go to YouTube and other internet sites instead. All the more reason for libraries to be selecting and providing content.
