چکیده

This paper describes our experiences our experience in building and using a Web-based video library designed for educational use. The CAETI Internet Multimedia Library’s initial audience is K-12 schools; most of the content of our library comes from news and politics-related historical footage. The video library is a good tool not just for content but also for acquiring visual literacy.
