@onlinemiddleton This is great! 😂 I agree that some ROI metrics can be hard to capture. However that particular metric is so valuable when communicating success within a social media strategic plan that it’s likely worth the extra time!

Here is a useful webinar for libraries looking for analytics tutorials on the big four social media platforms. #INFO246w719 SOCIAL MEDIA: Analytics for Libraries – https://t.co/8ICF3H62H5 https://t.co/wtDOVbdPA0

@pradobriansjsu Sure! Even creating handouts and posters will bring more awareness around libraries being vanguards of patron privacy. Check out how to be a privacy advocate. https://t.co/Q1E7d7Hel8

Libraries should do more to educate their patrons in protecting privacy via-classes, presentations and social media. #INFO246w75 Americans and Privacy: Concerned, Confused and Feeling Lack of Control Over Their Personal Information https://t.co/rT56yzSkYr

@Sonam_lib We are starting to collect data on website usage and where people click. I can see how this could improve user experience overall as long as the data is anonymous, it seems fine.

@gaby_mlis This has been a discussion at several of my libraries. We created desk holds for patrons who are more concerned. Otherwise it’s spine down with last name out.

Nigeria is in the midst of a literary boom. From YA sci-fi to heavy, political thrillers, Nigerian contemporary authors are worth your attention.

@robyndero21 I certainly didn’t realize that certain platforms might be better suited to reach a particular community until last week’s lecture. I am particularly interested in looking more at Reddit and Tumblr.

@ellebee4707 At BCL we had quite a few new patrons sign up for cards or come to our virtual programs during the pandemic who do not live in our area. I should look into if our welcome email includes our social accounts. 🤔

@AnnWeist My library saw a surge in new families attending virtual story time during lockdown. We will likely keep a virtual option going to help out busy caregivers.

[ReadOutLoud @ReadOutLoud6]

Public libraries often use social media to invite users to come in for programs or collections. My question is - how do we know if it’s working? #INFO246w621

I’m here for this! #Summer2021 is looking up!

@AnnWeist I know what you mean about finding time to read. That’s why my summer books have to be the page turning type. I’ll read the literary sagas in the winter!

My name is Danielle and I live just outside of Portland, OR. I am super proud of being from the PNW but I also love to travel. Send me your summer beach reads! #INFO246w67

@Library_Laine Wonderfully relaxing! Is there a library in your small town?

[ReadOutLoud @ReadOutLoud6]

@boltcity @saltandstraw It was delicious! Very cool idea 🥶

@gardenhomelib Tried Amulet flavor last week and it was 💯!!
