The future of social media is true engagement. Social media networks recognize our need for connection so algorithms are already favoring engagement as a means to create true connectivity online, and this trend will continue to grow #INFO246w82

@emm_el_eye_ess @webmastergirl I really like this this resource breaks down the Instagram algorithm for us a little bit. Thanks for sharing!

Counting followers is only the beginning in measuring metrics. Engagement through likes and comments is also important. So are the hidden metrics like traffic. If you have high traffic and low engagement, it's time to make some changes. #INFO246w719

@MichelleSharla I'm really glad that the ALA has official guidelines for this. There are a lot of things I wouldn't have even thought to think of that they included. Thank goodness for professional resources!

Third-party vendors can be great for expanding library services, but they can make protecting patron privacy a bit complicated. The ALA has some great guidelines for dealing with this! Find these guidelines in the link below. #INFO246w75

@jettkuch @LAPublicLibrary I'm with you on this one. I love seeing how libraries support the community through programs like this.

The SLCPL does a good job about talking about their services on Twitter, but I loved this tweet about taking care of bees. It was a cool way to connect with users which is what social media is for! Save the bees! #INFO246w621

Here’s an update on the Library’s beloved bees! They are happy and healthy and being taken care of off-site by our staff beekeeper, Amber.

@robyndero21 I was wondering why I couldn't see anyone's comments. Thanks!!

@DinoConBon No way! I'm in Salt Lake, too!

Hey Everyone! I'm Amy and I live in Utah. We're in a drought, but I'm still hoping to get in some hikes between projects this semester before any fires start! #INFO246w67

@HeejiSharok The valley can get pretty brown, but up in the canyons, it's so green and full of life!

@jettkuch I was an undergrad when I moved to Utah. I'd visited here a bunch but still had some crazy culture shock! Glad you've found a home.
