Call for Contributions: The Library Radio Network (TLRN)

Call for Contributions: The Library Radio Network (TLRN)

We are pleased to announce a new online news source for librarians called The Library Radio Network (TLRN) which will debut on February 15th. TLRN will feature library news you can use as well as fascinating interviews with library leaders from throughout the world. TLRN will also feature a monthly radio magazine called Library Perspectives, which will be a hosted hour-long downloadable program using the NPR format featuring interviews and segments on libraries and librarians.

We are seeking contributions from your library organization. We can accept MP3 formatted audio files that run no more than 5 minutes in length. Your segment can feature a member of your staff commenting on an issue in librarianship, or a feature interview with a library manager, or anything else that you want to contribute to this new online network. To air on our first program in February, we must receive your MP3 file no later than January 31st at 5pm ET. If you have any questions, please direct them to rhkmedia@yahoo.com. All files can be sent to that email address, as well. We hope that your library organization will become part of the excitement of TLRN.
