podcasts and biographies

Unfortunately I wasn't able to access podcasts due to IT constraints but will give it a go from home. The uses of podcasts would be beneficial especially to those who have remote users and cannot attend library events such as story times, book club discussions, author launches, and other special events.

The family history or local history groups could embrace this technology by recording the stories of people growing up in the area and the likes and make podcasts of these discussions for everyone to have access to. A verbal biography rather than the printed format.

You have some good ideas for podcasts - even if you haven't had a chance to hear one yet!
