iTunes U and You

Abstract

The James B. Duke Memorial Library at Johnson C. Smith University in the past year has integrated the use of iTunes U with student worker training in our access services. iTunes U was used by staff to create a basic library course for student workers to attend before they began work in the library in order to give them a fundamental foundation of library procedures. Additionally, iTunes U was used again in organizing and training two selected student workers as part of a grant project, Work Study Students to Librarianship Careers, which sought to introduce the field and opportunities of librarianship to undergraduate students. This session seeks to provide others in the library community the benefits and overview of using iTunes U with library student workers.
