Hi,

Hope this message is of interest to you. The newest tools to be added to the list 
at http://schlib.pbwiki.com/Tools are these:

Screentoaster

Screentoaster is a free online screen recorder .  There's a clear, short 
instructional video about Screentoaster at http://www.screentoaster.com/watch/demo  
. Great tool for school libraries and classrooms where professionals want to 
inform, instruct, or excite students.
