Italian Alps

To give Neil equal time, here’s video of the region his family is from. I decided to choose videos reflecting a trip our family took in 2001 visiting the places in Europe our families emmigrated from: mine from Switzerland, Neil’s from Italy. I can see that videos can be used to promote features or programs in the library, but the stuff you see right away are popular culture and current events. It takes some searching to find less common topics.

The scenery in these photos is absolutely stunning! You’re right, it’s a far cry from the Midwest.

I found the same thing you did when looking for videos to include in this unit. I think more popular videos rise to the top of the results lists in any given area, and videos on more arcane topic are really dependent on good subject tagging in order for them to turn up.

Did you end up finding these videos through searching or browsing, out of curiosity?
