Bibliotech Podcasts

I participate in a podcast series called Bibliotech, which focuses on all things related to technology in libraries.  The series is part of the Dquarium initiative which was launched online in the summer of 2011.  It is the brainchild of a fellow librarian and friend, Kayhan B.  Dquarium is a website devoted to technology, and is targeted at “nano-nerds” or anyone interested in the topic who remain at the top of their game by staying informed of the latest techno-trends and by sharing ideas with colleagues.

The Bibliotech podcast episodes are available for free on: dquarium.com and iTunes.  Check it out!
