Library Social Media Use
This webinar will cover how to create, administer, moderate, and leverage your library’s online presence using popular social media tools.
This event has passed.
Over half of the world’s 2 billion internet users interact with social media tools to create, share, and exchange information and ideas while online. Libraries are using these tools to market programs and services, and to connect and engage with their communities beyond the library walls. Join us as we explore Facebook, Twitter, and Pinterest as examples of tools that are being used successfully by libraries. The webinar will cover how to create, administer, moderate, and leverage your library’s online presence. Some basic security settings for each social media tool will be discussed as well.
Presented by: Dr. Roberto Gallardo, project director, Extension Broadband Education and Adoption Team (e-BEAT) in Mississippi
