Recording and Sharing of Conversations and meetings
Footprints should not only be witnessed by 'visitor's registers' and personal photo albums; libraries should start a practice of recording talks/conversations to share and enlightening others too.
In our global India, we have renowned professionals who frequently visit various libraries in their routine. They visit to get and share the useful information and practices. We facebookers get his/her update through the shared photographs only.
The big deal is that if we librarian adopt recording the meetings and talks on concentrating on special issues there could be a profitable deal for library and a knowledge for the crowd.
- Consent of person/visitors (permission for recording and sharing)
- A good quality photoshoot camera(good quality mobile phone would also work well)
- Tripod/stand for fixing camera/phone
- A person to operate the camera(optional)
- Noise-free environment(optional)
- Video editing knowledge and software(open source software works fine)
- Upload/host on your IR, Youtube/Facebook
Finally, you have done a wonderful job.
I have planned to do this in my library and I am waiting too for my guest.
