A Note From the
Continuing Education Coordinator

I’m excited to share that we have recently upgraded our circulating podcast kit to a fully-fledged Mobile Podcast Studio! This new iteration of the kit includes all the tools you need to successfully record or stream audio and video.

If you’re looking for a mobile podcasting solution, check out the configuration pictured below. This setup includes an iPad, fourth generation Focusrite Scarlett 2i2, two Samson Q2U Microphones, a powered USB hub, as well as all the cables, stands, and accessories to get up and running. You might be thinking, “wow, that sounds cool, but I have no idea how to use that stuff.” Not to worry – the kit comes with setup instructions and helpful handouts.

If you prefer to use your own device, such as a computer or laptop, you might use the aforementioned equipment, or the included wireless microphones. Looking to add video to your setup? Utilize the ring light, selfie stick/tripod, and/or webcam to make it happen.

Morning and afternoon keynote speakers will contextualize our important work in support of littles and their families.

___________________________________________________________________________________

The Performer Directory for Ohio Libraries<https://mms.neo-rls.org/ct.php?lid=263944347&mm=91391527127> has been updated with new submissions received since the directory was first published in January.

This compilation of recommendations submitted by Ohio librarians and library workers includes performers and other program presenters for audiences of all ages, for summer or throughout the year.

The Performer Directory is a spreadsheet that you can download and sort by type of program, audience age range, or any other field.

It will be updated regularly as more recommendations are submitted.

Have a recommendation to add? Complete this form<https://mms.neo-rls.org/ct.php?lid=263945569&mm=91391527127> to recommend your favorite performers and other program presenters. This form is exclusively for the use of Ohio librarians and library workers. You may complete the form multiple times if you have multiple performers/presenters to recommend. The form will remain open indefinitely, so you can also add recommendations in the future. Please submit only performers/presenters whose work you are directly familiar with and who you would recommend to other Ohio libraries, and who are willing/able to travel to other Ohio libraries to do their programs.
