I accessed the recommended podcast directories, but after trawling through many podcasts, I could not find much that interested me. Instead, I sourced my examples locally (in Australia) by accessing the Australian Broadcasting Commission (ABC) website (http://www.abc.net.au/). I have viewed this site extensively in the past so I knew it offered an interesting array of podcasts based on TV and Radio programming.
I have added two podcasts to my Blogroll from the ABC website; excerpts from Andrew Denton's popular interview show Enough Rope and an informative podcast of The Book Show, which talks about the written word in all formats; more recently discussing the screen writer's strike in Hollywood, LA.
There are many opportunities for podcasts in the public library arena, just a few examples could include;
- Storytime - downloadable for those extended road trips
- Local History - a terrific way to maintain oral history in a community setting
- Instructional - provide end user training on refining searching techniques and so on.
