Podcasts

I was unable to view podcasts on my own computer as I didn't have the necessary software. However, I explored what I could on a colleague's computer.

Looking down the list of podcasts on the Library Success wiki, I discovered Boulder Public Library's Teen Webcasts. I think it was an excellent idea to give teenagers the chance to talk about their experience of the library through the library's website. Given that many teens don't naturally gravitate towards libraries, this is a great way of encouraging them to see that libraries can be fun! For those teens who do love libraries, it is a way they can see what other young people with a love of books like to read, or what they have discovered in the library.
