CHOICE to Launch Patron Driven Podcast

David Free — Thu, 14 May 2020 15:38:33 +0000

This June, CHOICE is launching a brand new podcast called Patron Driven. The series features a multi-episode narrative format that combines interviews and storytelling to spotlight the breakthrough programs, hard-won advocacy, community connections—and the personalities behind them—that are being achieved in academic libraries. Our first series of Patron Driven is called “The Heart of the Campus” and it tells the story of the destruction and subsequent rebuilding of the Lonestar College-Kingwood campus library in Kingwood, Texas during and after Hurricane Harvey in 2017.

Learn about Patron Driven on the Choice 360 website.

Choice to Launch Authority File – new sponsored podcast on academic librarianship

Sophie Skinner — Tue, 25 Jul 2017 18:48:14 +0000

Choice has announced the launch of a new, sponsored podcast featuring conversations about academic libraries and librarianship, set to kick off Monday, July 31. The Authority File: a Choice podcast will feature weekly episodes in formats to include author/editor conversations about new books and products, thought-leadership interviews and discussions, and technology and product case studies. Hosted by Choice editorial director Bill Mickey, The Authority File is part of the suite of new content marketing options Choice offers to sponsors and advertisers through Choice Custom Studios.

The first four Authority File episodes center on an hour-long conversation with Raymond Pun and Meggan Houlihan, editors of The First-Year Experience Cookbook (ACRL 2017). The discussion ranges widely, covering each of the speaker’s careers and the general state of first-year experience librarianship.

“Choice has long been well known for quality reviews and bibliographic essays. We’re now pleased to provide engaging content for the academic library community in a new and accessible format,” says Choice editor and publisher Mark Cummings. “The Authority File will be the perfect accompaniment to our popular ACRL-Choice webinar series.”

The Authority File will be available on Choice’s website, and directly via iTunes, Google Play, and Stitcher. It will also be accessible on the free ACRL-Choice app, available at the App store and Google Play.

To discuss becoming an Authority File sponsor, please contact Pam Marino at pmarino@ala-choice.org
