What do you think about social media in libraries?
They absolutely have the ability of enhancing the library services. Facebook, Flickr, Blogging etc. These tools can bring to the public much more than advertisement. Social media can help create a virtual reference desk that goes beyond the physical location of the library.
What do you wish FPL was (or wasn’t) doing?
I think that as a library FPL is doing great. It is best to take thing one step at a time and do them right. It would be of no use to have many social media services and neglect to keep up with them. Technology changes quickly and if the library decides to jump in and use the social media it is important to keep up with the demand of the library costumers.
Have you learned anything from the program?
Through this activity, I found many interesting tools that I wouldn’t have otherwise. I have continued to use RSS and even created one only for research updates. Thanks to Elizabeth and Adam (Rachel and Heyvind too) for creating and organizing 23 things.
