Podcasts and Vodcasts

There are so many ways that this tool could be used for our clients and staff. For example you could:

- Record author talks for those people who were unable to attend or missed out because of numbers. - Record childrens stories (like denver library)
- Have a page with podcasts of answers to frequently asked questions.
- Create tutorials for how to use the library
- Give people virtual tours of the library using a vodcast.
- Create training vodcasts for library staff.
- Reviews of items in the collection
- Readers advisory

- interviews

I really like what cheschire public library has done getting local teenagers that use the library involved in their podcasts.

It will be interesting to see how our library will use this technology.
