Week 7 part 2

The next task of the week is to find a library related webinar/video/podcast.
However, I watched "Aboriginal Storytelling in the Modern Age" apart of CBC Canada Reads 2014.  From me this is profession development :) I would recommend it to everyone to watch to listen more about Aboriginal literature.

This video is of the event held in Ottawa on February 25 with Aboriginal authors Joseph Boyden and Waubgeshig Rice.

The discussion is primarily on Joseph Boyden's new novel "The Orenda" but the conversations go over how traditions play into modern Aboriginal stories and
the lack of Aboriginal characters in books.
