I just wanted to announce our new podcast. Future podcasts will feature storytimes for children as read by some of youth services librarians. But since April is National Poetry Month we thought we’d kick things off with a reading of the classic by Edgar Allen Poe, The Raven.

Last Tuesday, I interviewed Jack Maeby, author of The Thorazine Mirrorball for our first inaugural podcast. As we will be at the Venice Abbot Kinney Memorial Library on Saturday, April 5, 2008, from 3 to 5 pm with two other authors, I thought it was timely.

The first tool to be found on the homepage is, once again, the RSS feed. There is both the RSS symbol, though in a different color from what has b

I was rather psyched to see the podcast week in our training since I have been meaning to get on that band wagon for a while now.  I have a soft spot for CBC Radio and not enough time or forethought to hear my favourite shows, but ah ha!  They have selective podcasts now...and now that I'm well versed in the art of podcast retrieval I will finally get myself in gear!
