Infobase is pleased to announce that Films On Demand, Classroom Video On Demand, Access Video On Demand, and Learn360 now have a new Video Intro feature for playlists. Users can now personalize the playlists they create by adding a brief video introduction. This video intro will then be viewable as part of the playlist.
Why add a video introduction to your playlists? The uses and benefits are many for all types of institutions!
- Provide an overview of the topic for students and patrons
- Offer context to the videos in the playlist
- Suggest specific points in the videos for viewers to pay special attention to
- Promote a forthcoming library event with a “teaser” playlist of video clips—a video introduction is the perfect way to announce the details
- Solicit feedback that you can then share with your community
- Recommend additional resources that your library offers on the same subject
- Reach homebound patrons or students who cannot attend in-library events to help them feel like part of the community
- Use with the new Custom Content feature to deliver unique focused content around local events and community news
- Perfect for homeschooling, distance learning, and flipped classrooms!
