Week 9: Podcasts and Audio

Podcasts were quite interesting. From a library perspective I can see possible uses in oral history as part of the Local Studies Collection, speeeches or talks given by guests such as authors, public poetry readings given at the library, recordings of important information meetings given by persons such as the Library Manager or Council General Manager. Also a Library Tour podcast could be created or just as is done in art galleries a podcast could be created for any major exhibitions or displays held in the library to provide a better viewing and understanding of it eg. the library's current displays for "Year of the Tiger" and "Sesame Street".
