Podcast

The podcast below is of Library of Congress staff  Michelle Springer and Helena Zinkham being interviewed about their organisation's project to begin using Flickr (a few years ago now). They discuss a wide range of issues relating to this including copyright, maintaining digital archives, cloud sourcing (content they want users to contribute based on what's been posted.).  As the Library Of Congress is probably the leading library in the world this is a highly authoritative podcast.Have a listen!



I found this on the Voices Of The Past website and that is the podcast I've subscribed to. The podcasts found here are not specifically library related but are about "helping people use the social web to effectively advocate for heritage resources." The audience would be people who wish to become savvy in combining their use of social media and their interest in heritage resources. Depending on what library you work in heritage resources may be something you're responsible for.
