I'm familiar with the online tools we were to look at this week. The Library is on Facebook and Twitter. Personally I use Facebook, GoodReads and LinkedIn although I'm not that interested in spending a lot of time on the computer after a day at work!
I "liked" the Learn with CDLC Facebook page and made use of the refresher on Facebook privacy -- always good to review those details. As I read in a comment by someone else, I am so busy at work that it is difficult to read and absorb all of the information being sent our way in these lessons. But, I'm trying to keep up! I hope the Learn with CDLC Blog will stick around for a while so I can look at it again later this summer.
Our Library is going to try something fun with Facebook that we've seen done elsewhere. We're going to ask patrons to tell us the last 3 books they've read and we'll suggest a new title for them to read. We hope it will be a fun Readers' Advisory day -- and a great use of Facebook.
What a fun idea for RA & outreach. I'm going to share that with the group.
ReplyDeleteAnd yes, the blog will stick around for sure! There is a ton of information in each lesson, don't feel you have to read through it all though. I'm just including lots of options so everyone will have something of interest.
