Podcasting Books and Libraries: The Librarian Is In

You probably know that we run a couple of podcasts here:

So, yeah – we are big fans of podcasts! They can be such a good way to share ideas with your community.

Each week we are going to share a podcast from a library, or looking at books, so you can join us in expanding podcast community and admiring the work others are doing to share cool info!

This week we are admiring the work done by the New York Public Library. “The Librarian Is In is the New York Public Library’s podcast about books, culture, and what to read next.

Every week, Gwen Glazer and Frank Collerius discuss the books they’re reading, pop culture and the literary zeitgeist, and the world of libraries—and welcome special guests.

Gwen is the recommendations librarian in the Readers Services unit, and Frank is the manager of Jefferson Market Library. They bring equal parts humor, passion, and knowledge to this unique look at the world of books.”

They have a lot of interesting topics covered here! Recent shows include:

  • Books on the Subway
  • Bunny, I Love You!
  • The Dog-Eared Days of Summer
  • The Katniss Konundrum

If you are looking for a podcast that is cheery, fun, and filled with good library information – check out this one!
