Week 18 - Slideshows, Screen Casting and Digital Story Telling

What useful tool!!

I often get tapped on the knuckles for sending large pdf files in emails such as PowerPoint presentions. However it is hard not to when there are so many branch libraries spread out over a large geographical area needing access to resources. I've just found my answer!! What a great way to share large documents, not to mention the ability to share PowerPoint files with others who do not have the ability to open them.

I decided to join in on the adventure this week and joined Slideshare! I have upload a quick PowerPoint preso of some of the promotional bits and pieces we used at the beginning of the year just as an experiment not for any really purpose yet. (Slide show should hopefully feature below). I found that there were a few errors in the layout and font settings but nothing that cant be easily fixed with a bit of fiddling. I decided to leave it the way it downloaded, as I'm busting to find out what is in week three and wanted others to see what I mean about layout and font.


I had a quick peek at Digital storytelling at Culture Shock where stories are inspired by visits to museums and galleries. I was fascinated and my mind explodes at the possibility for using the idea in libraries of the future!
