Podcasting services in academic libraries: A case study.

This article will discuss the podcasting environment at the University of Utah, which takes place in the Audio Studio of the Marriott Library. As academic libraries implement innovative technologies as services, this article will elaborate on the ways that podcasts are being recorded and circulated by students, faculty, and staff. The equipment, spaces, and staff expertise of the Audio Studio serves as a guide for campus podcast facilitation. Other topics discussed include unmediated access to the Audio Studio for podcasters, what types of podcasts are being recorded, and how media production instruction, coupled with librarian expertise, enhances library spaces through technology.
