Red Dot: Short promo videos of book covers for each category

I just put up 4 YouTube videos -- just 40 seconds each -- showing the book covers in each category -- in a playlist. 

I also put the videos on the category homepages on the Red Dot Book Awards site, replacing the previous Picasa Slideshows (as I realized that I couldn't easily re-use those slideshows, e.g., to send out to my English teachers in the run-up to voting).  YouTube videos are much more easily shared and spread.  (My apologies if you don't like the background music I chose for each.  The mute button is always an option.)

Anyway, here is the playlist.

Add to our YouTube playlist(s)

Ron Starker in the SAS Middle School made some very fun videos with his students to introduce the library.

I've put links to them on an ISLN YouTube playlist called "School Library intro videos". The videos introduce basic library organization, genres, and how-to use Destiny/Quest to find books.


If anyone else has videos they've created and want to share, send me the link and I'll put them on a playlist.  Maybe we'll be able to have some short videos of Hands on Literacy moments that we can upload after the conference.  Just a new place for us to share things we've created.
