I so (SEW!) enjoyed this Adventures in Art Podcasting as background to my sewing my first DIY protective face mask today… Julie, you and Lindsay are two of my favorite internet celebrities, and to have you together in the same production was fabulous!
Just a thought on the virtual resources available to most American library patrons, I understand that Libby is a user friendly iteration from the same people as Overdrive, and usually a public library offers both, though each library chooses exactly what specific titles will be offered from Overdrive under their agreement. In other words, two libraries which offer Overdrive (and Libby) will have two sometimes significantly different offerings/ catalogs. E.g., Boston Public Library offers different titles from what Houston Public Library offers (I’m presuming,… I didn’t actually check, to be honest, but I’ve compared other libraries before, and found it to be so)
Occasionally, a library will offer several different virtual libraries, which work similarly and sometimes complementarily- (is that even a word?). Besides Overdrive/Libby, my hometown Texas library also offers I-Cloud Library AND RBDigital, which is primarily Audio-books, in contrast to Overdrive and I-Cloud which offer both audio and written books. As I’ve been playing with these options In our isolation time I’ve discovered that some titles are available at more than one app, and with significantly different wait times, so it’s worth exploring…(You can search using filters to ID written vs audio, available now vs place a hold, etc)
Generally the audiobooks are my current fave, particularly for Non-fiction that I THINK I might like but don’t want to have to sit and invest the time (Malcolm Gladwell’s “David vs. Goliath: Underdogs, Misfits, and the art of Battling Giants” was the first in a long series of non-fiction books I’ve enjoyed in audio forms all while doing other things, whether driving across Texas, or cleaning house) Right now I’m enjoying lots of audio fiction, subject to change without warning (and to what is immediately available on my library’s streaming services.).. So thankful that libraries are there!
And, of course, you, too! So thankful that You Are There, too!
