Thing 25

Podcasts and Libraries -

I looked at several library web sites using podcasts. Some seemed very useful to the patron at home, some just seemed fun. The lapsit recording with video was cute and the story books were nice. I do have to say, why play a podcast of a stranger reading a book when you can read to your child instead?

I looked at one site where teens were contributing local news and book reviews etc. That was interesting. However, most all the sites have not been updated this year. It seems everyone is very excited and posting in the beginning, but the newness wears off.
