Video's - Te Rā Mere - Friday 29 August

Late with this post, that's what happens when I've got such a full life, Yeehaa. Because I find videos an easier way to learn something new, this post is about videos. Building Academic Library 2.0. is featured here and the rest of the (Common Craft) video's that were on my blog can now be accessed through here.

Te RāTū - Tuesday 12 August

Ok, ok, I adore these little ones, and I do like the photographs in the Te Ao Hou magazine as well.



WOW, I've found the 'gadgets' that are available with our blogs, yehaa. I've added 'He kupu o te Ra,' awesome, as well as a calendar (that's the control person in me), Inspirational Quotes and Pictures, I do like quotes, and photographs, well enough said. That's why I've got Places to See. The reason why I added 'Things to ponder' is because I enjoy those little titbits of info, even though they had to be pretty good, because they came with advertising and I was on the point of not adding them. I've also found all of these library related gadgets, search answers etc, fantastic. Learning to sign, when I have a spare moment. Near the bottom of my blog are Common Craft videos on RSS, Wiki, Social Bookmarking and Podcasting.

'Haere Mai'



I found the library wiki SJCPLSubjectGuides really interesting, they were created by the Reference Librarians and are guides that led patrons to resources in the Internet, the Library and in the community. Patrons were also invited to make suggestions. What I did like was that this library had a blog and librarians could be contacted by email. Librarians could also be contacted by four different 'messenger' services. As well as taking the patron to the catalogue, like all wikis, one could edit after joining and logging in. The BookLoversWiki was more of a book review site. Library Success: A best practices wiki and library wiki examples were interesting but you had to join up to edit anything and I guess I was just tired after all of the sites, I have already joined, not that I could think of anything to edit. The YouTube video was really good and I understood wikis better after watching it, which helped me add my favourites to the Sandbox Wiki PBwiki Learning 2.0 . (Which I had done a couple of weeks ago). At that time I also go a pbwiki account. ngati-akonga pbwiki
