Including the Library of Congress!

“As part of its mission to support Congress in fulfilling its constitutional duties and to further the progress of knowledge and creativity for the benefit of the American people, the Library of Congress and its staff have created regular and occasional podcast series to highlight the collections, services and staff of the Library of Congress, to be produced and distributed by the Library.”

Recently posted episodes are available from series such as:

• Our Constitution, which “provides an objective look at America’s charter and how it has been interpreted over time;”
• America Works, featuring “the voices of contemporary workers from throughout the United States talking about their lives, their workplaces, and their on-the-job experiences;” and
• Folklife Today, which combines “brand-new interviews and narration with songs, stories, music, and oral history from the collections of the Library of Congress’s American Folklife Center.”
