Murdoch University have several library podcasts. These are a guide to the library both a full library tour and the tour broken into 5 parts. They are presented by two members of the library staff. Having sampled them, they seem to be concise, comprehensive and very helpful for new students. They are intended for you to download to your MP3 or Ipod and listen to them as you walk around the library. As I have not done so, I cannot support the accuracy, but the overall feel is one of professonalism and authority. I can imagine how helpful this would be both for new students and students who have attended Murdoch for some time. It would be particularly helpful for students how are on their second or third year, do not know the library and are too embarrased to ask for help. The only problems I had was I did not like some of the wording and the man's voice was particularly annoying, but this is personal preference. The podcast (full library tour) can be found at http://wwwlib.murdoch.edu.au/about/podcasts/audio/Full.mp3

ReplyDeleteThis is not an appropriate comment in terms of assessment. You are supposed to think about the post and provide constructive feedback!!!!!!!!!!
This is nearly fine and competent, Joshua. You just must make the podcast a hyperlink in your post, please, so others can comment. Then I can give it a CP.
