After returning to the culture of work, the November 2013 School Library Journal landed in my inbox (hey, it's a fairly numerous department, we only have one copy) and I knew I needed to log the following tools about from the article, "Build Your Own Video Course." Tools for curating videos, for talking about videos (with an open or select group of people), and for reinforcing learning of video content with supplemental material. And they are:
I did want to note that while I was on my snowboarding trip, I did visit the Glenwood Springs, CO library. Very nice space. The community is really proud of it (I spoke with a man who just raved!) and they are open 7 days a week.
In Japan I visited the Kyoto Prefecture Library (next to the Kyoto Municipal Museum of Art and the Museum of Traditional Hand Crafts) and while I was hoping for a futuristic experience of libraries (and was disappointed), I did get a quiet reading room and a cart with Japanese and English guide books. I discovered the guide to all the museums of Kyoto, which I will be referencing when I return to Japan. I'm done with visiting temples and shrines (in the cold)!
