Pioneer

Pioneer, Utah's Online Library is getting some media attention. Lea Ann Lobb of KUTV interviewed Pioneer Chair Wayne Peay for her Fresh Ideas feature. Here's a transcript of the story. We've also produced a new Pioneer TV spot. It will be airing soon on KULC and perhaps other stations, but you can see it now online. It took quite a team from KUED Media Solutions to produce this little gem. Here are the credits:

Gordon Jones - Director
Eric Carlson - Editor, Associate Producer
Gary Turnier - Videography
Kevin Sweet - Audio
Al Cutler - Lighting
Dave Krummenacher - Writer, Storyboards, Animation

"The library is not a shrine for the worship of books. It is not a temple where literary incense must be burned or where one's devotion to the bound book is expressed in ritual. A library, to modify the famous metaphor of Socrates, should be the delivery room for the birth of ideas - a place where history comes to life." --Norman Cousins

Found while looking for something else: Albert Einstein - Image and Impact (note: Einstein was born on this day in 1879.)
