Frost isn't just a nice, down home poet of iambic tetrameter (here's an interesting YouTube version of "Mending Wall.:"
As to YouTube in libraries: well it is very interesting to have video clips such as the above of Frost's own voice. As video librarian, I note that students often want the JFK "Ask not what . . ." speech or Nixon's "Checker's speech." This can save money by not buying such content on DVDs, or supplement the DVDs (what if the DVDs are checked out?).
The myriad library YouTube postings for this assignment show how creative libraries can be in marketing services through libraries. I enjoyed the Zombies marketing winner and the Allen County tour on a cart promo.
Our library buys many films previously selected for the Wisconsin Film Festival, a YouTube promo of this fact would be very useful. I also like the idea of training posts such as Common Craft Videos for library training. Security training has become important at our library location; and a posting of tactics might be useful to others in the library community.

...and then, apparently, It just went beserk when someone CURIOUS tried a MASHUP of Gin Rummy and Scrabble!

A YouTube promo for the Film Festival films would be fun! You could even embed it on the library website or one of the blogs for a while. Seems like the perfect audience for it!
