The Library Stage

Amanda Hunt, MLS

The Library Stage is the podcast where school librarians take the stage: 18 minutes, one big idea, every episode. Hosted by Amanda Hunt, MLS (@TheNextGenLibrarian), award-winning Texas high school librarian with 21 years in education, each episode spotlights a librarian sharing what actually works: the programs, books, and edtech lighting up their libraries.Every talk hits one of three pillars: Literacy (books, reading culture, and collection stories), Edtech (AI, digital creation, and the tools transforming today's library), or Discovery (programming, makerspaces, and big ideas from guests.
