[Carol Folt @CarolLFolt]

Billionaires should not exist.

On branding: The brand needs to represent the library and the library staff need to understand what the brand represents as well. #RUSAFORUM22

Another full day of sessions at #RUSAFORUM22. This first one on health reference is super informative and the speaker is making the content so clear and easy to follow!

[Christal Young @MissChrisstyle]

Incorporating digital accessibility into virtual reference and online offerings makes reference better for everyone. 💯 #RUSAFORUM22

[Christal Young @MissChrisstyle]

If you're going to make a student come to class, it better be about something they can't learn outside of class. The same can be said about virtual reference *finger snaps* #RUSAFORUM22

[Christal Young @MissChrisstyle]

Well look at that! It's #MyTwitterAnniversary!!!!!😊

[Christal Young @MissChrisstyle]

College students are part of the larger community and once they graduate, they no longer have access to many resources. Connecting them to the public library may be key for their continued success

[Christal Young @MissChrisstyle]

RE: collaboration - The librarian to librarian connection is key. #RUSAFORUM22

[Christal Young @MissChrisstyle]

@jcjeffersonjr set the tone with this one! "Reference sets the tone for user experience" #RUSAFORUM22

[Christal Young @MissChrisstyle]

I’m also the library first year experience coordinator at Leavey, where I connect programs I develop to resources found at the library. Leavey is home to the Contemporary World Issues Series, which covers an array of topics. (Shout out to all the plant-based folks out there!) -CY

[USC Libraries @USCLibraries]

Thanks for following along today! Be sure to follow Leavey Library on Instagram at https://t.co/DD4yn9WTsg to find out about future events and updates. #FightOn! -CY

Recently, I hosted The Living Library. Students, staff, & faculty served as “Living Books” and discussed matters that shaped their lives with “Readers.” View our inaugural Living Books and discover additional readings at https://t.co/i0wcSLQ3d1. -CY

[USC Libraries @USCLibraries]

Speaking of world issues, CQ Researcher is another useful resource that provides in-depth reports on current and trending issues. It’s a great place to start research or find a chronology, graphs, and even pro/con debates on popular topics. https://t.co/nCV8NULt6H -CY

[USC Libraries @USCLibraries]

Another hidden gem are our historical newspaper databases. In addition to ProQuest Historical Newspapers (my fav!), there’s NewspaperARCHIVE, ethnic newspapers, and a host of others by region & century. https://t.co/9k3bbQfl4b -CY
