Cambridge Libraries of the World Podcast

A brand-new podcast series for librarians to listen to and learn about topics at the heart of academic discourse, via interviews conducted with professors, researchers, students, librarians, and Cambridge personnel. 

Episode 1: Digital Textbooks and Online Learning

In the first episode of our Cambridge Libraries of the World podcast, we discuss Cambridge’s response to ensure continuous education during the pandemic and beyond by creating the Higher Education website. Jack Macdonald, Director of Library Sales, along with Laura Newby, and Dave Morris on the Higher Education team, share their expertise on digital learning for libraries and how all learners can benefit from this website. 

Episode 2: Building Libraries with Diversity in Mind

In this interview, Library Marketing Executive Haddy Ndure is joined by Gurvinder Aujla Sindhu, author and Associate Professor in Journalism, and Kaye Towlson, Chartered Librarian and ‘Decolonising DMU‘ lead from De Montfort University in Leicester, to explore how we can keep diversity at the forefront of libraries’ agenda.
