Screencasting opens up all sorts of exciting possibilities for our website. I could see creating short screencasts as other libraries have done, showing patrons how to use some of the features of our site and library. For this week's lesson, I created just a short screencast at Screencast-O-Matic, without narration, showing how we map the most common two network drives at our library: the common drive and a personal drive, but we could do some that would be a little more extensive with sound. The limitations would be that the patrons might not have the right plug-ins or versions of them to view the screencast, so we would need to have a transcript available as well.
