With thanks to many people for their assistance, especially LDPD, CCNMTL, Starr and the Development Office, we are pleased to announce the first podcasts (audio & visual files) created by the Columbia University Libraries as part of an experiment under the aegis of the Public Services Council.

NB: these do not require an iPod or iTunes to be viewed or heard.

• for a tour of Starr in Japanese (four more languages coming), visit http://www.columbia.edu/cu/lweb/indiv/eastasian.
• to listen to & view the PowerPoint of Digital Library Seminars given by Barbara Taranto or Nancy Fried Foster, see the new (thanks again to LDPD) Digital Library Seminars page: https://www1.columbia.edu/sec/cu/libraries/bts/ldp/seminars.
• to listen to Prof. Delbanco's discussion of his new book on Melville, go to http://www.columbia.edu/cu/lweb/news/recordings/friends/index.html.
  

We will be discussing the project, as well as our presentation on it at the Dartmouth Biomedical Libraries October Conference ("Cool Tools and New Technologies:"
http://www.dartmouth.edu/~biomed/services.htmld/OctCon2006), at the next Emerging Technologies Brown Bag on 30 November from 12-1.

If you have any questions or comments, please let us know.

Yours,
Sarah, for the podcast project team: Jennifer Rutner, Jeremiah Trinidad-Christensen & Sarah G. Wenzel
