Week 8

You get all kinds of questions.





A new take on ref services. Where's my Blackberry?




We better get something out there so this isn't the only representation of TRL.
To catch people's attention and imagination TPL would have to produce a clever clip perhaps highlighting one of the special collections or a special service. Something that doesn't scream LIBRARY/BORING.
Many of the library related clips I found were neither funny nor interesting.

PODCASTS

CBC Radio: Words At Large, for Canadians who love books.

EnvironMinute brings you news every week day about the environment and your health.

Hall of Mirrors: Tales of Horror and the Grotesque.

Lots of interesting things out there.
Who needs a radio, TV, books or stereo system anymore?
Not sure when I would have time to do all this reading, listening, watching; while vacuuming?

google docs

Great stuff! The spreadsheet was much easier to use than regular excel.
This google feature would be great for clubs and amateurs of all sorts to get together and share ideas, write proposals, grants, etc.

Really this is just like our shared drive without all the controls. Or at least the members have control. I suppose it could be used for work purposes and give IT a break.

OK I take that back. I am unable to save changes to the shared google doc. Everytime time I try I get a message telling about a network error and to try again. I've tried many, many times but no luck.

What am I doing wrong?
