Thing 13: Document Sharing

On rare occasions our library instruction lab is double booked and we go to the instructor's classroom to teach bibliographic instruction. Google Docs makes it easy to access our materials and is always available.

Library Instruction - English 112

Thing 11: Shortening a URL

Transforming a URL for a full-text article from Academic Search Complete using Bit.ly might be helpful during an LRC Live chat session. Our current version of Java does not support cobrowse. http://bit.ly/bYwyk8

Thing 10: Searching Twitter

I will be perfectly honest. I do not have the time to follow tweeters. I searched the VCCS Online Library and tried to post a tweet but was unsuccessful.

Thing 9.5: Image Generators

I added this message to a license plate using ImageChef. Great advertising for LRC Live.

Thing 9: Photos & Images/Flickr

This is an interesting picture taken of the Golden Dome and the Hesburgh Library stacks at the University of Notre Dame campus in South Bend, Indiana.

Library Pay for Print Instructions

As we implement new processes and procedures, we could use slide sharing as an instructional tool for students on our library website. It would allow the students to have reinforcement about the procedures in our library.

Thing 6: Chat

I have been chatting on LRC Live from the very beginning of this concept. It seems to be a useful tool used by students in NVCC more than anywhere else in the system (at least during my hour of staffing). The interaction has been positive and concise for both parties.
