Podcasts

I have been delaying the blog about this because of some technical issues that I have had with my computer. I am actually having trouble accessing podcasts. I was able to download iTunes and I was able to search the podcast directory, but I have not been able to download any podcasts to watch. What I did see however I was impressed with. On a personal note I would love to be able to access the Etsy podcasts which has information on crafts.

I would actually love to use podcasts for tutorials for students doing research. There are times where I have to work irregular hours and I am not always available for the students. Also I am the only librarian and the only full-time person so if I am gone the students do not have another resource. Podcasts would be the ideal item for students to access to have something to help them while they are doing research.

  1. Exactly! Podcasts and screencasts extend the reach of the librarian and library.
