4. Hit the Record button.
5. At the end of your recording, click Stop Recording.
6. If you have shared screen, Stop Screen Sharing.
7. End your Zoom Session.

9. If you selected to save your recording in the Zoom Cloud Storage space, you can share the recording from there, or download the MP4 file and share it.

*For Instructors*

“Beginning on December 22, 2020, Zoom Cloud Recordings will only be available for 60 days. Recordings prior to November 7, 2020, will be deleted.”

For the libraries, some areas to consider:

1. Workshop recordings – we move those to YouTube as soon as possible – Instruction Services team has been uploading recent workshop content there. 
   • If you have done any on your own, and need to move/save and still have that content available, please let me know.
2. Class/training sessions you may have recorded and left on Zoom Cloud for sharing
   • Again, just check on your Zoom page and let me know if we need to find another place to host it for sharing – Panopto would be the most appropriate place for these.
   • For moving the recording to Panopto, see: https://teachingtools.umsystem.edu/support/solutions/articles/11000086048-understanding-how-zoom-recordings-store-in-panopto 
     • In most cases, downloading and uploading to Panopto might be the easiest option.
     • From there you can either share to courses, affiliates, or anyone with the link - as required.
3. All Staff/committee/ small group meetings people may have recorded and planned to hold on to for a while: We have to move them elsewhere. Please let me know.
