Ferndale Library’s New Podcast “A Little Too Quiet” Launches January 3

Bird Box Author Josh Malerman Featured in Debut Episode

FERNDALE, Mich. (DEC. 20, 2019)-- The Ferndale Library will debut a new
podcast on all major podcast apps this winter. “A Little Too Quiet” is a
new and exciting way for the library staff to engage with patrons. The
enlightening (as well as entertaining) content, produced in-house, might
otherwise be formatted for an on-site program or event, but will instead be
delivered in audio form. The library also hopes to use the podcast to
connect to the grander book-loving community worldwide, kicking off with a
premiere episode that features Bird Box author Josh Malerman on Jan. 3.

The podcast’s name, “A Little Too Quiet,” is a nod to the fact that
libraries everywhere have evolved beyond the longstanding perception that
they are silent institutions meant only for peaceful reading where
librarians sternly shush anyone speaking above hushed tones. That’s just
not the case anymore, and the new podcast aims to demonstrate the ways in
which the Ferndale Library and libraries everywhere have evolved into
21st-century community centers where, yes, occasional loudness is more than
accepted.

Episodes will showcase unique library resources, promote library programs
and events, and feature discussions on literary news, the special
experience of book clubs, the ongoing outreach efforts of Youth Services
Librarians, and the history of the library. This coming year, 2020, marks
the 90th anniversary of the Ferndale Library. There will be content that
unveils the history of the building, while also engaging patrons to share
their favorite memories and experiences about the Ferndale Library. There
will also be lots of local author interviews, starting with Malerman in the
premiere episode, as well as conversations with Michael Zadoorian, Kathe
Koja, and more.

“A Little Too Quiet” also serves as a way for patrons to stay engaged with
their library during the snowier months when travel is more challenging.
Now, library patrons can hear from their library while they’re at home, at
the gym, or on the go, just by putting in some earbuds. Along with being
hosted at the library’s main website, “A Little Too Quiet” will also be
available on iTunes, Spotify, and Google Podcasts.
