About This Video
This video is
It takes about ten minutes to install Scriblio, configure it, load records, and view your new catalog. Watch and see.
I first did this screencast for my OLA Superconference presentation where I wanted to demonstrate an install but didn't have network available during the session. It works better with narration, and I'm planning to redo it along those lines, but I wanted to offer this one here until I do.
