YouTube Class Notes

Furthering on with YouTube, we come to notes, opinions, and of course our own work.

One of the tasks we had to undertake was to create our own short video, in which we had to demonstrate a task in action, then upload it to YouTube.  Here is mine.


YouTube as itself is a site with endless possibility as to what you can find, but there are drawbacks, in that anyone can upload anything and it can remain there until reported and removed.  Also the anonymous nature of commenting means a lot of negative comments can be made unless comments are closed.

The video I choose to explore, on ShelvAR, was chosen as it demonstrates one example of AR in action in a library, and one that is forthcoming soon.

In this day of the digital age,libraries at least understanding, if not using YouTube is becoming more important.  As digital integration becomes more common, with new technologies such as augmented reality, being able to plug into it and provide services to customers can help libraries retain their edge.  Events can be advertised and shared with ease, and even book trailers and reviews can be shown.
