Learning Objectives

Following this session, participants will be able to understand the importance of using streaming video content in teaching, how video content is curated and cataloged, and methods for making streaming video discoverable to students and faculty.  

Abstract

All recent surveys of students, faculty and library staff show the same thing – the preference for video in teaching and learning is growing at a phenomenal rate. Yet, compared to monographs, databases, e-journals and e-books, video often remains the “red-headed stepchild” in academic libraries.

Our presentation will discuss overall research regarding the preference for streaming video in the academy and results from the Survey of Academic Library Streaming Video. We will describe how video is being acquired in libraries, discovery and access to streaming video collections, the amount of staff time being devoted to its curation.

In addition to commercial offerings, institutions are creating streaming video content. The presenters will also describe how that content is being treated. Unlike offerings from suppliers, institutionally produced or acquired streaming video also has preservation needs and descriptive metadata requirements.

Most importantly, we will discuss and demonstrate various methods for making streaming video discoverable to students and faculty.
