Register to join <a href="http://techsoupforlibraries.org">TechSoup for Library</a>'s free webinar on Tuesday, September 25th at 11 a.m. Pacific time, to find out more. </p> <p>Anyone who has been in a public library in the last decade knows that public access computers are helping community members access all types of digital content – from online job ads to the latest YouTube video meme. In addition to helping people access digital content, however, many libraries are also helping community members create digital content. When a library makes video and/or audio recording and editing equipment and software available, they are providing community members with an opportunity to gain new skills and to have a voice in the online world.</p> <p><a href="http://libraryyou.escondido.org/">LibraryYOU</a> is a project by the <a href="http://library.escondido.org">Escondido Public Library </a>to collect and share local knowledge through videos and podcasts. With a recording studio in the library and training classes for the public, LibraryYOU has helped create a wealth of local knowledge in the community. LibraryYOU focuses on instructional and educational information, with how-tos, tutorials, and short lectures on a variety of topics. Community members can share their knowledge and skills with other community members. Read about LibraryYOU in our Library Spotlight, <a href="http://techsoupforlibraries.org/spotlight/sharing-local-knowledge">Sharing Local Knowledge</a>.</p> <p>On Tuesday, September 25th, we’ll have the opportunity to learn more about <a href="http://libraryyou.escondido.org">LibraryYOU</a> with special guest Donna Feddern. Donna is the Digital Services Manager at the Escondido Public Library.</p> <p>This webinar is the second in a series of webinars exploring the <a href="http://www.libraryedge.org/">Edge Initiative Benchmarks</a>.

A comment we&rsquo;ve heard pretty often is that so many<br /> presentations at conferences seem to be by and for librarians from<br /> larger libraries. Well, Big Talk From Small Libraries<br /> &lt;<a href="http://nlcblogs.nebraska.gov/bigtalk/">http://nlcblogs.nebraska.gov/bigtalk/</a>&gt; will change that.<br /> This free one-day online conference is aimed at librarians from small<br /> libraries; the smaller the better. Each of our speakers is from a small<br /> library or directly works with small libraries.<br /> Topics range from technology (new tech and old tech) to programming to<br /> partnering with your community. Speakers will cover eight topics&mdash;one<br /> each hour. Come for the programs on what you&rsquo;re dealing with now or<br /> maybe try something new.<br /> Everyone is welcome to register and attend, regardless of how big or<br /> small their library is, but if your library serves a few thousand<br /> people, or a few hundred, this is the day for you.<br /> More details, including speaker bios, session descriptions, technical<br /> information and registration can be found @<br /> <a href="http://nlcblogs.nebraska.gov/bigtalk/">http://nlcblogs.nebraska.gov/bigtalk/</a>.<br /> This conference was organized and is hosted by Michael Sauers and Laura<br /> Johnson of the Nebraska Library Commission &lt;<a href="http://nlc.nebraska.gov/">http://nlc.nebraska.gov/</a>&gt;<br /> and is co-sponsored by the Association for Small &amp; Rural Libraries<br /> &lt;<a href="http://www.arsl.info/">http://www.arsl.info/</a>&gt; and Library Renewal &lt;<a href="http://libraryrenewal.org/">http://libraryrenewal.org/</a>&gt;.<br /> *Big Talk From Small Libraries**<br /> *February 28, 2012*<br /> *8:45 a.m. &ndash; 5:00 p.m. (CT)**<br /> *Preliminary Schedule:**<br /> *8:45am Log-in, Welcome, Housekeeping &ndash; Michael Sauers &amp; Laura Johnson,<br /> Nebraska Library Commission<br /> 9:00am *Helping Your Patrons E-Read &ndash;***Karen Mier, Plattsmouth Public<br /> Library (NE)<br /> 10:00am *Community Partnerships* &ndash; Karla Bieber, A.H.
