Alytus librarians launch new cultural podcast

Staff members at the Alytus Jurgio Kunčinas Public Library have launched a new podcast titled ‘Yra kaip yra ir nėra kitaip’ (It is as it is and is not otherwise). The project was developed voluntarily by four librarians: Aurelija Sukadelskaitė, Andrija Petkevičiūtė, Viktorija Juškienė, and Indrė Navickė.

The podcast originated from natural workplace discussions regarding books, films, and various cultural discoveries. While literature remains the primary theme, the discussions also encompass series, cultural news, and sports. The creators aim to share recommendations with a wider audience through various platforms, including Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and YouTube.

New episodes are released monthly and recorded in the library's podcast studio, a facility that is also available for free to the residents of Alytus who wish to create their own content.
