Recommended tools for social media engagement
Task 11: Recommended tools for social media engagement From your examinations and investigations choose two social media applications/tools that you would recommend as being of the most benefit to libraries. Give detailed reasons why you recommend these two tools? Facebook and Twitter - Both are similar, they update followers on upcoming events and news at the library that they may not hear about otherwise. You don't have to be a member of the library to follow them. Email is the other, when you become a member of the library you can sign-up to receive an eNewsletter. This also gives you information on upcoming events, suggested reading and important notices monthly. These applications are an excellent marketing tool for libraries as they promote events and different uses for the library than just borrowing books.
