Comment: I agree with you that the Imaging Pittsburgh project is absolutely fascinating! Just to imagine, all of that valuable and historic information compiled into one main location and organized in such a way that people can access it with ease. That's a true accomplishment, and I think it's also a wonderful example of the positive side of digitizing and joint efforts among local organizations to made information more readily accessible for the public.

Comment: I agree with you on the use of YouTube...the possibilities really are endless. YouTube is such a familiar thing with such a wide range of people, and so I think it can be used in some pretty neat and interactive ways. If people see the public library as a place that promotes and utilizes technology to better reach people and serve the community, the chances of survival (I think at least) are quite good. It's amazing how far-reaching something as simple as a short video can be in our world today.
