This month’s podcast highlight is produced by Mark Blevis, whom I met at Podcamp Boston back in September, and his wife Andrea, called Just One More Book. Every week, Mark and Andrea go to a local coffee shop and talk about children’s books they and their daughter love. The podcast also includes interviews, comments from littler readers, and more. Hear it the way they tell it by listening to the attached promo: click on the play button (if you’re here on the PLA Blog site), or open the attachment/link (see the help instructions for your news aggregator).

This podcast would be great for children and youth librarians who are looking for off the beaten path books to recommend, and feedback from young readers about what they did and didn’t like. And, it’s a great podcast to recommend to parents who are always on the lookout for books to read to their kids.

Podcasting still a blur to you? Watch the archives of the SirsiDynix Institute webinar on Podcasting (Part 1 – A Consumer’s Guide and Part 2 – A Creator’s Guide) by Greg Schwartz of the Louisville Free Public Library. Also, check out a great FAQ on podcasting developed by the Kankakee Public Library in Illinois. The link takes you to the archive of the library podcasts — which are very interesting and worth a listen — and the link to the FAQ is at the top of the page.

Does your library do a podcast that you’re particularly proud of? Have you seen a podcast in your listening travels that might be useful to librarians and/or patrons? Send us an email and let us know.
