Interviews with Databases
This is quite an idea - the database is a persona, who is interviewed by the librarian. Try the Interview with JSTOR or the Appointment with CINAHL.

These look as though they'd be great, but after sitting on dialup for 8 minutes waiting for the download I lost patience. Good for people on campus or highspeed I guess. I'll try again when I'm on campus.
I must try these podcasts from home, but I suspect you are right - anything on YouTube is useless for me from home. Just read an article titled, Videos Threaten Net Capacity. It makes me wonder how we can sustain a reasonable level of virtual service for "library stuff" when there is all this bandwidth-thick technology in the wings - the digital divide continues to plague us.
