YouTube Tuesday: Librarians are always up to something...

...And it IS still Tuesday for another half hour! SHOOSH!

(It is NOT, however, a video from YouTube.)

This video of these two librarians' shenanigans on top of a fun song has a sunshiny feel that seems a fine way to welcome in Spring. Let's give the boot to an overly long winter. Good riddance! Now, let's all dance to our MP3 players.

YouTube Tuesday: Silent Film

After surviving my worst cold in years and then an Easter trip across several states, the long blog silence is finally over!

Which makes this week's selection for NotYouTube Tuesday (Vimeo this week) even more appropriate: a modern day silent film with a charming soundtrack.

YouTube Tuesday: AACR2: The Movie

"He's a by the books cataloger with nerves of steel who always plays by the rules.

YouTube Tuesday: Follow Your Bliss Edition

Ladies and gentlemen, I bring you a collection of videos of people doing embarrassing things in libraries. Just because no one else can hear the music doesn't mean you can't rock out. (Just don't be surprised when a teenaged boy shoots you on his cameraphone and spreads the video worldwide on YouTube.)





At least this one knew what he was getting into:
