How come I didn’t know that Thomas Ford Memorial Library has started a Click-A-Story service, offering audio recordings of stories read by the library’s Youth Services department? Of course, there’s a podcast feed, although at present the content seems to be a copy of the feed for their YA Reviews series.

Update: Aaron let me know that the Click-A-Story is in early alpha mode, which explains the feed issues described above.

Also wanted to steer you toward David Free’s wonderful, lively interview with Tina McElroy Ansa, which forms the majority of Listen Up! #10. Ms. Ansa was already on campus for another program and David seized the opportunity to bring the author’s voice to more members of his service community and beyond. Are you looking at ways to extend the mileage/value of the programs that you work so hard to organize at your library?
