As part of our on-going podcasting efforts, the Dowling College Library in Oakdale, New York has created an online resource for our history-related audio interviews: The Listening Tour of South Shore History http://www.dowling.edu/library/maps/oakdale.html This interactive map links users to MP3 files featuring members of local historical societies, collectors, and long-time residents discussing the history of the area as well as issues involved in preserving the past. Special segments also involve readings of materials in our Special Collections. The MP3 files will play on any standard media player right on your desktop. File download times will vary with your connection. Feel free to contact me with any questions or comments.
