Podcasts

Podcasts are audio files generally associated with the Internet. The idea is that by downloading/streaming a file, a user will listen to people talking/discussing a subject for a given period of time. Podcasts tend to be focused on a particular topic, and come out on a (semi-)regular basis, such as in the form of "episodes."

An example of a podcast is one conducted by the National Library of Australia. These are sorted by topic, with each topic hub listing episodes. These topics are as follows, and are listed as a hub here.

*Talks & conferences
*Exhibitions
*Collections
*Media
*Events
*Bookshop
*Digital culture
*Innovative ideas forum
*Learning
