Podcasts and audio

I liked the idea of podcasts of story time sessions, video would be good here too. Also useful for author talks, oral history, staff training sessions

Tried listening to a Libvibe podcast but couldn't bear the accent! Also slow to download but think that might be my PC.

British Library-podcasts all looked very interesting but lengthy. Might be useful to have on in the background when doing other work either on the computer or around the house.

ABC-initially got an error message

I don't want to subscribe to another application so will leave this for now.

I had a look at what some other libraries are doing. Still having trouble getting some of the podcasts although can read a description of the content. Getting teenagers involved (Manchester Public Library) was a good idea. Ohio University Libraries used podcasts to explain how to use various services in the library (eg booking a room, overnight lending).Author talks and storytime features at Sunnyvale public library.

However at my library we are pushing it to cover all the desks and open the doors so can't see this technology being used in the near future.
