I decided to try Screenr and created a screencast showing how to access OverDrive ebooks and utilize OverDrive help tutorials through our library's website. The recording process was very smooth and easy; I was able to begin using the software quickly without sorting through extensive directions or installing multiple pieces of software.
Screencasting tools allow instruction to occur remotely and would allow our patrons to access help resources 24/7. Although my library does not currently utilize this technology, I could see possible uses for screencasting in our library, both to offer assistance to patrons through our website, and to share knowledge among library staff.
