Webinar

I tried Opal, looking at an archived session on digitzing a collection. Since it was an archived version, I couldn't chat in the box with others to find out how to download the visuals to go with the webinar. It was also a long one (53 min) and I didn't have 53 min, so I didn't fiddle enough with it. I have done an archived webinar with MaintainIT and found that very useful. In reading some of the articles about web conferencing and thinking about how I might use it, I thought of our Montana Shared Catalog meetings. For those who can't attend, I wonder if we could post or broadcast our meeting live as a web-conference.

  1. Suzanne, when we (at Big T)first joined the MSC a few years ago we tried teleconference meetings. The group was smaller then and it still wasn't too satisfactory. Now that the State Library has some online meeting tools, I hope they'll consider trying webcasting the MSC meetings to reach members that can't be there in person.
