[Publib] podcasting at your library

[yesha naik]

I am brainstorming ways in which I could use my podcasting skills on behalf
of my library... One idea which was given to me by one of our YA specialists
is to interview youth and put those interviews up as podcasts, specifically
with the theme of immigration, since I work in an extremely diverse area.
This I am definitely planning to do, but wanted to dream up of other "out of
the box" ways in which podcasts could be used... I guess one could also use
podcasting to work with local senior citizens to create oral histories as
well....

It would great to teach podcasting to the youth, (or to anyone who is
interested) but that seems like it would be quite expensive to do since it
would require each participant to have access to either a PC/mic combo or at
least some kind of digital voice recorder...

If you have used or currently work with podcasts at your library, can you
share the ways in which you have incorporated podcasting in productive ways?

Or even if you just have a brainstorm to share, that would be highly welcome
as well!
Best,
Yesha Naik
