Did you miss the April 15, 2009 Breezing Along with the RML session? It is now available online at: https://webmeeting.nih.gov/p84926249/

April’s presentations focused on technology for libraries and librarians.

Sharon Dennis, Technology Coordinator, gave a presentation entitled “Surprised by Twitter: Using Twitter for Information Discovery.” She gave a brief introduction to Twitter, talked about Twitter as a means for libraries and librarians to share information with patrons and colleagues, and then discussed how Twitter can be used to find information through a series of new Twitter search tools. The search tools can be used without signing up for Twitter itself. She provided examples of how Twitter helped her with a recent project.

Rebecca Brown, Kansas and Technology Liaison, presented Screencasting: the what, why and how. Several freely available tools were discussed as well.
