I have posts coming for each of the excellent group projects in my LIS768 class. But please take a listen to this remixed take on Anonymous’ comments about Mishawaka Library Banning Social Software. http://yourlibrary.podOmatic.com/entry/2008-04-06T10_40_08-07_00 Just one example of the creativity my class demonstrated.

Rikhei Harris offers some outstanding commentary on ITI aligning with SWIFT for CIL: http://llyfrgellydd.info/?p=40 I frequently use Creative Commons licenses for my work, and such, I grant many of the rights outlined above to anyone who can use my works.

It expands visually on the review in a fun and informative manner. The possibilities for using video in this manner excite me: school and other librarians get even more information for decision making than just the printed review, the link can be shared (and blogged) easily, and the video format (music, shots, script) is a perfect prototype for doing your own reviews.
