A Quiet Meadow

Youtube is a great tool to use when presenting students information or showcasing students with different activities. Some librarians upload videos to Youtube and that in return gives other librarians ideas.  I usually use Youtube to watch comical videos and music videos from my favorite artists.  This was the first time I actually watched videos that showcase a library with entertaining and informational videos.  Libraries don't always have to be quiet all the time.   NHS Library I think this video would be liked by students, because it shows a mascot visiting the library.  This video can encourage students to visit their library. Students that want to learn how to use online services can benefit from watching this video.  It shows students how to log in and shows them what resources are available online.

Instagram is a great app to use when sharing photos with friends.  Some educators use Instagram to share photos of their classroom activities to parents.  When using Instagram, you can upload and tag people in the photos, you can follow people, or others can like pictures and follow your profile.  Videos can be also added to Instagram with special effects.
