Cambridge Libraries of the World Podcast
Created for librarians and the academic community, the Cambridge Libraries of the World podcast consists of a series of interviews with librarians, students, Cambridge employees, and academics from different parts of the world to cover the diverse nature of the work we do and the audiences we serve.
Episode 1 Digital Learning and Online Textbooks
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 episode, we meet author and Professor, Gurvinder Aujla-Sindhu and librarian and Decolonising DMU lead, Kaye Towlson for a wide-ranging discussion covering diversity, equity, and inclusion. We explore how to become more inclusive in our work and keep this discussion at the forefront when we’re talking about universities, academics, and education in
general.
Episode 3 Open Access Publishing around the World
For this episode, we speak to Professor Frederick Ato-Armah, Professor of Environmental and Sustainability Science, at the University of Cape Coast in Ghana, and Andri Johnston, who is the Digital and Open Access Projects Editor here at Cambridge. We cover what OA means, how it opens the doors to collaboration between researchers across the world, and some of the projects and initiatives Cambridge is working on to improve and increase the use of Open
Access.
