Podcasts can be used by
libraries to share information on different topics with their users.
These can range from simple educational talks for children to more
advanced topics to educate the adult population. They can include
information on topics to do with science or other everyday
educational interests as well as more thought provoking topics. These
podcasts can be made in house or can be provided by another
organisation. In this way users have access to information on a wide
variety of different topics and can assist in the lifelong learning
of the users.
Podcasts can also be
used by libraries to assist staff in learning about the different
aspects of the library processes. Podcasts can be created which the
staff can listen too. This is particularly important for new staff
and for when procedures change or when things such as the library
management system is changed. The staff can listen to the podcast
whenever they feel that they need a reminder about how to do certain
tasks.
