This is amazing! I love how they say “we are so much more than a public library” while actively showing a patron sipping coffee while sitting in a comfy chair–it just exudes coziness. I love it. This commercial makes me appreciate libraries even more!
-
@mickeysosa97 Yay! It is so well done!

Wow! I just submitted my Innovation Strategy & Roadmap into this Audio AI and it created a perfect 5 minute podcast summarzing the project. My mind is blown. Will share along with my finished roadmap when finished.

@kylehanson Very cool! I am glad you tried it out. Mind blown for sure!

I just pasted my last blog post and listened to the podcast created, and it just blew my mind. Here is a link to it: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1WQ5cbjLAHqrQNWIE4i8uagM7tHT7rIpw/view

@michael This is so COOL! Mine ended up being like 12 minutes long, but this technology is INCREDIBLE!

I had to click on the Notebook guide then load to listen to the podcast. Thanks for the info!-
@claireburke Thrilled you tried it. I don’t think your link will work if it goes directly to your google account.

@michael okay, hopefully this time it works!

Sites for Free Images
Hey all – Please share your favorite sites for grabbing Creative Commons or free-use images for your blogs and Inspiration Reports. I just came […]-
Adobe Stock and Pixabay are good places to download duty-free images for a project as well.
-
Students have access to Adobe, so we can get their images when it might have cost something otherwise.
-
@acorey Adobe Stock is a great one! I’ve been using it more since becoming an SJSU student. 🙂 Have you played around with Adobe Express? It’s like Adobe’s version of Canva and is a good resource for combining free images with other digital assets.
-
I don’t believe I’ve tried this one, but I will! Thanks! Does anyone else find the number of app we can use in the MLIS program, and life in general, overwhelming? I often find myself having to moderate the apps on my cell. Too many and you can never find anything!
-
-
-
-
I use Pixabay.com!
-
Pexels is my go-to, but I’ve also used Unsplash.
-
unsplash.com is one of my favs. It has beautiful photographs that, honestly, I can’t believe are free to use.

I love this so much! When my kids were little our public library used to host a sleepover for kids who pledged, and succeeded, to go screen-free for a week. We have such precious memories of making blanket forts in the stacks and reading late into the night surrounded by our neighbors and community!

@Catherine I absolutely love that story!

@michael I LOVE that library you shared about in Copenhagen with the climbable shelving! I worked as a media assistant at a public elementary school library for several years which has an amphitheater that begs to be climbed on and you bet that I let the kiddos get comfy on those oversized steps to read and get cozy and socialize. It made them so happy.
-
@celimiranda Yay! That is so cool the kids were able to use the big steps.

@michael I absolutely love this idea – it is so creative and cool! As an extension, the library could also host board game nights and have people bring their homemade board games. So fun!

Hello! I just posted my Hyperlinked Environment reflection post and I was wondering if you needed us to submit each link into Canvas or if you are following them throughout the semester? Thank you!

@crlhayd I am following them…but TBH I didn’t read as many blogs as I thought I would in Scotland! I will be doing that this week.

@michael This module was really helpful! I do work with some employees who have several years and even several decades under their belt that are great co-workers, but are a little bitter and/or jaded by having worked for a county library system for so long that they have a lot of negativity around new ideas. I get it, they are often overwhelmed by their daily tasks and some are stuck in their way. But this unit provided some avenues for reaching those co-workers. Great module!

@celimiranda Thanks for that feedback! I appreciate it.
