Thank goodness! A nice easy one.
I have been on Facebook for years but use it more to lurk. I find it useful for contacting individuals, hearing from distant friends and checking my nephew's ever-changing relationship status!
Library use of Facebook varies from the rather dull to the quite interesting ...a bit like Library Web sites I suppose. The BL site is pretty cool because there is so much unique stuff they can be promoting. The new Birmingham Library site contains some fancy images. It certainly looks a lot better than the bizarre council shopping centre feel it currently has. I always remember running a training session there once and setting an ice breaker exercise. As I looked out of the window at 09.35 I saw a guy drinking beer in the boozer down below.
When I do my marketing talks I invariably mention our Facebook presence. This is much admired. Katharine deservedly won an award for her article about our Facebook campaign in ALISS Quarterly. I like to think that part of this was down to the writing and part down to her hard work in establishing this excellent resource.
