Podcasts and Audio

I love podcasts - great way to listen to radio programs etc that you otherwise wouldn't know existed. Found a podcast about Evelyn Waugh on the British Library site and lots of interesting podcasts on Radio National. Was mainly interested in what public libraries were doing when I looked at Library Success Wiki. Denver Public Library podcasts storytime - stories for kids - great idea. I listened to one of these called 'It's quacking time'. I think this is a great way for public libraries to use podcasts and another way would be to podcast book reviews by staff. One way that I hadn't thought of was to use podcasts to education customers about new technology in the Library. The Wadsworth Public Library had a good podcast about how to use their new online catalogue - what a great idea!
