I have used this. It is really terrific. This is the LiveBinder I created to share with teaching interns. Someone actually has their library holdings in a LiveBinder. http://livebinders.com/play/play_or_edit/7548 Bettina Brander Field Instructor MSU Library Media Specialist (retired) tbrander@comcast.net "Whatever the cost of our libraries, the price is cheap compared to that of an ignorant nation."

Wow--that IS a great site! I won't have time to play with it, so I'm glad Naomi's going to! I thought I’d reply to the whole list to remind everyone that we already have a book trailer site that has those features. The trailers at BTFA are organized into folders by interest level. There is a folder already set up that contains documents related to creating trailers. Unlike Teacher Tube or You Tube, the streaming doesn’t take much time at all. It’s super easy to share with others either via copying and pasting the links, or downloading/embedding. Last week we added a folder called “Videos that aren’t trailers” and yesterday we set one up for award winning books. I have had a great many suggestions for other additions to the site, and hopefully will be able to add a great deal to it this summer. I have high hopes for the BTFA site—and that it will evolve into something much bigger than just book trailers. In less than eight weeks, we’ve accumulated 82 trailers and have had close to 8,300 trailer downloads. That’s just mind-boggling to me! (On a FANTASTIC note—we’re allowed 100 GB for free and we’re using less than 1 GB even with all that we have!) If you’ve never visited BTFA, please do: https://www.4shared.com/u/vgpvszst/15eb7f4e/Book_Trailers_for_All.html?sId=cTOFXvukAegVAoFA I hope everyone has a fantastic Friday…and that you survived the week following TLA! Now, back to the never-ending pile of work in my own library… Blessings, ~Teresa On Thu, Apr 22, 2010 at 11:23 AM, Naomi Bates <nbates@nisdtx.org> wrote: > > This is one I'm digging into tonight!
