Podcasts for Information Literacy: Database Overview (part 1)

Database Introduction:

Here is an overview of what the
Avery Index to Architectural Periodicals has to offer. This podcast is meant to be used in conjunction with other information literacy training, lectures and exercises. The script was created by Shannon Van Kirk, MLIS and read by Regina Roberts, Student in MLIS program at San Jose State University. Technical Assistance including the editing was provided by Patrick Kammermeyer.

In this forum (blog), this podcast is meant to be yet another example of how libraries and librarians can use podcasting to deliver content to their clients.

N the Stacks - Episode 3 : More ideas

For this episode, I concentrated on more ideas for using the podcast and also I give a little background on some of the factors that lead up to the creation of this project. Please think about how you might incorporate podcasting in an information literacy program.

Other questions came up for me as I was working on this project. Some of those questions are: How can I steamline the recording process to make it easy for an entire staff of librarians to utilize this as a tool when needed?

What areas of information literacy are better suited for podcasting?
What about creating the metadata for people who are hearing impaired. Is the itunes and feedburner metadata enough? Should someone transcribe the interviews and post them in the blog space as well? So there are other areas to cover, and I think that there are many possibilities for use of the podcast as a part of an IL program strategy.
