Podcasting

As I am a visual and hands on person, podcasting does not do much for me. I prefer to read or watch, listening is something I have a hard time doing when learning about something new. The vodcasts are something a little more my speed, but they do seem to be a little more slow coming.

I found the Denver Public Library podcast where they have recorded children's stories. I found this to be the best use by a public library for podcasting. That would be an exceptional use of podcasting for my library, I could use it to promote reading in young children and create excitement. If they enjoy listening to the story just imagine if they could see the book too, instant patronage in a pint sized package!

I really love this idea and may look into implementing it for my library.
