Youtube video clip

I think it's a great opportunity to check out sites of things you're interested in but don't know too much about. You can keep up to date on your favourite people in the news. I watched most of Canadian Idol last year and to watch Brian Melo win was really exciting. I grew up in Hamilton, so watching Brian on TV was great. It has to be great for anyone keeping in touch with family that live a distance away-you can see and hear them right on your screen.

I think having video clips of library programs and events on Youtube would be great. Patrons can log in and check out samples of storytimes, programs, and classes, author readings etc. Patrons would be more willing to come out to the library for a program if they can have a visual/sound view of what to expect.
