This was the first time that I have had a look at Podcasts and I found it interesting. I have an iPod where you can download a variety of things such as music and talking books at a cost.
Podcasts have the potential for use in the Library environment. For customers libraries could develop podcasts for such areas as homework topics, book reviews and library news.
For staff podcasts could be used for staff news, training notes and meeting minutes which could be made available for staff access via an intranet. This would allow those staff unable to attend or in remote locations to access relevant library information.
Podcasts could open up a whole new avenue for libraries to distribute information. They would be of particular benefit in the younger age group and those tech savvy people who prefer 21st century information access.
