wk10 Podcasts

There is the possibility to subscribe talking book titles in podcast format from vendors and have the link posted on the State Library's website (even with RSS feed to notify clients of new titles added to the collection). This will save all the processing costs and storage space for the Disability Access Collection.

Language learning lessons can also be loaded. Heavily used materials such as the IELTs titles will no longer need to be purchased to replace missing or damaged copies. It also provide better access (with the appropriate licensing agreement set up).

All events in the form of 'in-conversation with...', lectures and presentations held in the Library can be recorded for podcasting.

Podcasts can also be used for the collecting and sharing of oral histories of the Aboriginal communities in NSW.

It would be great to be able to use rss feeds for collection items.
