Blogging Assignment Create an entry in your course blog for Week 3: Social Networking Tools. Blog about your impressions and experiences with social networking. You may want to consider some or all of the following questions.
How can social networking be used by MLA to connect members
Should your library have a Facebook or MySpace page?
Are there privacy concerns for individuals when using social networking sites.
What did you like or not like about your experience with Facebook or MySpace.
Social networking can be used by MLA to connect members by their common goals, ideas, discussions, etc. It can reconnect people who have not been in touch. It can provide benefits for members with similar interests.
I believe our library should have a Facebook page. It is a nice way to connect with our library users of the millennial generation and beyond. Connecting with library users keep libraries relevant and useful to new users.
Individuals may have privacy concerns on social networking sites. As a wise person once said, "It's completely public if it is on the Internet." While many users feel their information may be secure on certain sights, applying caution to social networking sites is prudent and a responsible way to utilize this new technology.
I enjoy both Facebook and LinkedIn social networking.
