Chad at Library Voice points to Librarycasting SE (the SE is for Sciences and Engineering). This is a wonderful collection (blogged) of screencasts and podcasts put together by Pete Kirlew at Virginia Commonwealth University. A sampling of some of the recent posts include: Tutorials for Engineering Village, PubMed Video Tutorials, Finding Online Tutorials at VCU Libraries, Searching for New Book Titles at VCU Libraries, Staying Current Using RSS Automatic Updates, NOAA Podcasts and RSS Feeds, Automated Updates of Journal Article Titles and Database Search Results for the Health Sciences. There are separate RSS feeds for the tutorials in the disciplines of Engineering, Library Services, Life Sciences, and Physical Sciences.
Chad sums it up well at the end of his post, "This truly is awesome, Pete. This serves as a great model for other subject specialists. It’s a blog, it’s a podcast, it’s a screencast. No, it’s super-duper subject librarian outreach!!! Fantastic!"
Camtasia Studio seems to be the poison of choice here.
