Week 9 podcasts and audio

I sometimes listen to podcasts from a couple of ABC radio stations - on my computer as don't have an ipod. Also chose the British Library's spoken word podcast of Evelyn Waugh and thought that this facility would add another dimension to the enjoyment of sight-impared people. Library Success wikis had much to link to and listen to; the virtual classroom is alive and well in schools, universities and libraries(particularly in the American contributors listed).

Our library could use podcasting for such services as children's storytime, especially for children who can't attend a session (and great for kids in remote regions); also, perhaps to introduce book club books prior to selection (as in the Book Talks Quick and Simple podcast).
