Video Creation & Editing for Instruction in Libraries Webinar Recording Now Available

We’re super excited to offer our first recorded webinar for purchase!

Video creation and editing is often a skill many librarians and library workers are expected to have in their toolbox, yet there is no universal formal course to acquire the skill, with many librarians and library workers learning on the fly to produce videos as quickly and thrifty as possible. As a result the video creation process is often overwhelming and over complicated for many individuals tasked to create content. In this webinar Electronic Services and Instruction Librarian Carly Lamphere offers her experience creating library instruction videos for various institutions. She will also provide the tools to successfully create videos for your library as well as locate software/storage that fits into your library’s budget and needs, and provide tips on making video creation as seamless as possible, fitting into librarians and library technicians busy work schedules with ease.

• When do I make a video for Instruction?
