Manchester Public Library

I have noticed just alone as a clerk who sees the teens come to their youth meetings that these teens are with the times. From what i see all the teens know how to use the computers they know what music they would like the library to own as well as what genre of books they want to read.
I chose Manchester Public Library catalog because when i clicked on the link i saw teen matrix and i thought wow its about the kids and i like that because i remember when i was a kid i loved going to the library always wanted to work at a library so it impressed me.
Know as i said before i like the podcasts becomes someof them are usually in a radio type format but what manchester had that i like was a videocasts that actually had teens who spoke of their favorite books so like a podcasts but you can listen and be visual at the same time.
To me podcasts are excellent for our customers who can not see very well and are looking for new books on disc they can have a little summary given to them. Also for customers who do nothing but read and run out of titles at least with the podcasts they can weed out what they like and don't like.
It is just life you have to change with the times. I have said that in so many blogs the world is evolving and its now you are either up for the train ride or if you want to stick with the wagon. at somepoint things run out and you have to go out and buy something new to replace it thats the way technology is as soon as you buy something, something bigger and better comes along. I know it gets fustrating but as i continue to do this 2.0 i am learning things that i never thought i would like listening to a hockey game over the computer and then blogging on it.
