Podcast Booth
The Audio Studio is in a faculty space with limited weekday hours. It also requires arrangement with Media Studios personnel for most use.
This led to the establishment of a Podcast Booth:
The Podcast Booth is a user scheduled, soundproof recording facility in Protospace on Level 2
Users can record audio using a Snowball microphone and Audacity digital audio recorder.
podcast kits
During the Covid 19 pandemic, podcasting from home became a necessity.
To faciliate remote media creation, the Marriott Library purchased 9 podcasting kits: a Snowball USB microphone and hard plastic carry case. Check-out is available at the Knowledge Commons Desk, Level 2 Marriott Library. Students can check them out for 30 days. Staff and Faculty 3 days.
