  Welcome back to the 8th edition of the Turnbull Mixtape! We mixed things up last year and it was a great success so this year we are flipping and reversing it again!
  
  Music can be a powerful tool for healing and in light of the current Covid-19 pandemic and our lives being impacted in many different ways we thought we would put together a mixtape of music to encourage relaxation and promote feelings of calmness.
  
  Borrowing the format of the hugely successful Desert Island Discs and moving into the digital world, we have invited staff from throughout the Library to think about what they would take on their device should they be cast away to a desert island, aka social isolation in Aotearoa (we will assume for convenience the desert Island has wifi!)
  
  We asked each contributor to select their favourite ‘relaxing’ track from our Creative Commons collections, their favourite podcast, and one optional luxury item (app) they couldn’t do without. We also got them to share the reasons behind their choices and any other tips they had for promoting a positive outlook in these challenging times.
