The only podcasts I had listened to before this lesson were our own Sno-Isle online story podcasts performed by my fellow children's services staffers. (If you haven't heard any of these, be sure to check them out on our website -- they are wonderful!) I quite enjoyed them, so I was looking forward to exploring the whole wide world of podcasts. I subscribed to the Pierce County Library's book review podcast and Nancy Keene's Booktalks Quick & Simple podcast, as well as a movie review podcast called Filmspotting that I found through Podcast Alley.
I was very impressed with the number and breadth of the podcast selections -- you could subscribe to podcasts for every possible interest, if you had the time and the inclination to listen to all of them! I like that the Pierce County Library's book review podcast was mostly nonfiction -- I will have to look for a children's book review podcast. The booktalks podcast was very helpful (I had actually visited this site before, but hadn't listened to the podcasts). All in all, there are many opportunities out there for libraries and booklovers alike to take advantage of podcasting.
