For this post I found a movie related to school libraries. I really liked the way this particular video explained the idea of a library as more than just a place that houses books. I also appreciated the fact that they stated that the librarian was there to help find information rather than sit there and glare at people who are too loud. The people that put Library Revolutions together did a great job at showing some of the nearly limitless resources that the library has to offer and they did it in a way that easily relates to students of the digital age. Granted, not everyone will get The Matrix references that the video is based on, but using a big part of popular culture to explain a semi-complex idea like the library makes it all seem a lot more relate-able and less complicated. Here's the video, done by students from KU. The URL is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lAViPFzr8sM&feature=relmfu. Enjoy, and happy reading!
