I have established a Flickr account for wildrumpus and have uploaded Festival of the Book and Family Place photos. Photos may be viewed at www.flickr.com/photos/librarywildrumpus. It has been a very handy way to share photos quickly. Ann Young has been able to grab photos from this account for the website.
There are other applications that can use photos stored in Flickr. Today I made a 30 second video using animoto retrieving photos from the Flickr account. You can view the video below.
I have also used Flickr to create a librarian trading card--posted on the blog--it took longer to do than the video.
I think there will be many library uses but it is important to remember to get photo releases when taking photos of library events. This is something we automatically do now at Family Place and Read to Me events.
