Podcast episode: “Library Mythbusters”
by Jason on Apr.01, 2008, under podcasting
Rachel and I tried something a little different this time — instead of talking about a specific resource in the library, she suggested we do an episode talking about library myths and misconceptions (like “librarians read all day”). We tried to steer the conversation toward promoting library services that students might not know about, but I was awfully rambling and not sure how well I did at that!

Good job on putting those myths to rest. Not quite as exciting as the Mythbusters tv show, though – you’ll probably have to add some explosions before you can sell it to the networks. ;)

Absolutely — I need to see whether our budget will extend to some explosions. And a Kari.
