Apologies for cross-posting.

 

Do you want to get more out of your library’s social media accounts? Would you like to gain some new ideas on how to achieve maximum impact from your social media activity?

 

The Taylor & Francis white paper on social media in libraries is now available for you to read online: http://bit.ly/socialmediatf  

 

Explore the findings and discover how librarians are using social media, the most useful social media tools, and the best applications for these tools in a library setting.

 

Interested in hearing more? Join us on November 12 at 3.00-4.00pm GMT for a FREE webinar on how to discover best practice for using social media in the library.

 

We will share key findings from the research carried that was out in collaboration with over 600 librarians worldwide.

 

You will hear case studies on how librarians are currently using social media and receive best practice recommendations on topics including:

 

·         Driving user engagement

·         Measuring social media impact

·         Using social media as a customer service tool

·         Promoting your library's collection

·         Establishing a policy and managing social media output
