Socially networking


I am currently using a social networking site called Facebook and I have found that it has connected to me to not only current friends of mine but also past people I have associated with e.g. school friends etc.

It has been a great way to stay in touch with people and be part of their lives.

I think social networking sites could be a very useful tool for libraries to use as it could reach out to people that would not necessarily access library information in other formats.

Libraries could use tools such as Facebook to promote coming events and in this way would connect to a wider audience particularly young people. They could post their newsletters and reach a whole new audience.
