YouTube: more than just puppies and pranks

If you are a visual learner, don't overlook YouTube as a source of how-to information.

In addition to watching someone change a tire or bake a cake, YouTube contains instructional 'screencasts' on how to use most research databases.

The videos below, both found on YouTube, demonstrate Value Line, the popular investment research database and the genealogy database Ancestry.com. These are just two examples. Search YouTube for an instructional video of almost anything that puzzles you online.
