In the past few years, video has emerged as one of the most exciting, dynamic areas of Web development. YouTube is now the third most visited site on the Web, and sites like Hulu are becoming ever more popular. Libraries have always delivered video content, but as new format and delivery options increase, so do questions about copyright, licensing, infrastructure, software, and more. This presentation will outline what the latest trends in video delivery mean for libraries. Packed with useful information, including checklists, standard licensing terms, technical overviews, and more, this webcast will give you the information you need to make informed decisions about how to deliver video services that best serve your patrons’ research, classroom, and entertainment needs.
Questions this session will help you answer:
Why is video important for your library and your patrons?
How does educational video “fit” into the broader context?
What new technologies do you need to know about?
What is high-definition video? Can it be delivered on the web?
What infrastructure and software options are available for libraries that want to deliver video?
What about mobile video?
What ways are there to integrate video in the curriculum?
What technical models are prevalent currently? What are the benefits of downloading vs. streaming?

What should I look for in business models and licensing terms when assessing video solutions?
