NYPL’s new catalog
The New York Public Library’s new catalog was discussed. The catalog replaces CatNYP and LEO, combining materials from the two defunct catalogs. The new catalog is powered by a product called Encore, developed by Innovative Interfaces. Georgetown University Libraries also has a beta version of an Encore catalog on their website.
Prezi
We have discussed Prezi, the non-linear presentation tool, in past Tech Sharecases, but Linda was kind enough to show a presentation that she had built using the tool.
Luke Waltzer, who you may know for being a frequent guest at our Tech Sharecase meetings and for being one of the WordPress wizards behind the scenes at the Blogs@Baruch program, did a presentation using Prezi. You can read about Luke’s experience using Prezi and view the presentation on this post that he wrote.
