Social Media For Public Libraries: Basics and BeyondElise C. Cole
Presentation given at OLS-North Annual Conference on Wednesday, May 4. I covered the different types of social media and the dos and don't for use by public libraries.
Public affairs and community reporting encompasses coverage of government activities, officials, agencies, politics, and public issues at the federal, state and local levels. It aims to hold authority accountable, give voice to communities, reflect local realities, and inform the public. While reporting has changed with new technologies and constraints on resources, public affairs reporting remains important for uncovering stories that might otherwise go unreported. Examples of effective public affairs reporting include use of maps and data to analyze police stop-and-frisks, hyperlocal blogs focusing on budget cuts, Google Maps documenting crime, and campaigns addressing local issues. Authentic reporting from within a community remains important.
This document discusses issues around privacy and the use of social media by youth. It notes that younger generations are adopting new technologies at faster rates than older generations, leading to generational gaps. While social media allows for learning and connection, it also enables the sharing of private information without fully considering consequences. The document advocates for educating youth about critical thinking online to help them safely and responsibly navigate an increasingly digital world.
The document discusses trends in digital reading and mobile technology and their impact on libraries. It notes the rise of e-readers like Kindle and discusses how libraries must adapt services like providing access to digital books and resources. It emphasizes that libraries' core roles are providing information, experiences and engaging communities both online and offline.

Questions are raised about the future of print media and how information and knowledge will be produced and consumed in this changing environment.
This document discusses how social media can make people smarter through increased reading, writing, collaboration and multi-tasking. It provides evidence that heavy social media users read more and experience improved mental health and academic performance. Frequent posting on sites like Twitter also encourages concise writing and broadens perspectives. While older adults and professionals have also benefited from social media in terms of social connectivity, learning and networking. Overall, the document argues that social media engagement develops valuable skills like problem solving, critical thinking and leadership abilities that can enhance intelligence.
How social networking can be effective final draft[1]Lindsaybritt13
MySpace was once the most visited website in the US, but lost users to Facebook. It failed to innovate and keep up with sites like Facebook that offered more utility. MySpace's attempts to focus on music and social entertainment have likely come too late, as users have migrated to other platforms. It now has a fraction of the users it once did.
The document discusses the potential for governments to embrace new technologies and social media to become more transparent, engage citizens, and empower the public. It argues that governments need to move beyond just informing citizens and recognize that the public has valuable knowledge to contribute. While some governments have started to engage online, much more progress is needed to fully realize the possibilities of openness, participation, and collaboration that new technologies enable.
The document discusses how the speed and platforms of media have shifted over time. It notes that social media allows news to spread almost immediately through unedited sharing, unlike newspapers which took longer to produce. As digital media has become more efficient at delivering content quickly, it has replaced slower platforms like newspapers. Now, media organizations are diversifying their content across multiple platforms and pushing news directly to users, representing a shift towards "wire-fication" where content flows freely across different channels in real-time.
The document discusses the evolution of the web and technology from Web 1.0 to 2.0 to 3.0. Web 1.0 focused on connecting information through hyperlinks and searchability, while Web 2.0 emphasized connecting people through social networks and user-generated content. Web 3.0 aims to develop the semantic web through linking users based on similar interests and forming online communities. The document also addresses changes in various industries like music, movies, publishing due to new digital technologies and the importance of intellectual property in the digital age.
Beyond Alt-Metrics: Identities & Influence OnlineBonnie Stewart
Open, participatory online learning and scholarship don't necessarily require credentials as the price of admission, but do demand the construction, performance, and curation of intelligible, public, networked identities. Both academia and social networks are, in effect, ‘reputational economies,' but while scholars and educators are increasingly exhorted to go online, those who do often find that their work and efforts may not be visible or understood within institutional contexts. Likewise, as the academic tradition grapples with sea changes in infrastructure and communications, the terms by which scholarship and learning have been defined and legitimized are being unsettled from within. What signals count as credibility among networked educators and learners? What risks and power relations need to be addressed as part of that process?

Education in Abundance: Network Literacies & LearningBonnie Stewart
This document discusses the changing nature of literacy and learning in an era of knowledge abundance enabled by digital networks and the Internet. It argues that we must rethink what it means to be literate and how education is structured to take advantage of network tools that connect people and allow knowledge to be shared more openly. Key network literacies discussed include developing an online identity, contributing knowledge through participation as a resident rather than just a visitor, and making connections by engaging with audiences and building communities of shared interests through hashtags and other networking tools. The focus is on how education can cultivate learners who can navigate and help others navigate a world of abundant, openly accessible knowledge distributed through online networks.
The document discusses social media and making sense of the signals it provides. It notes that social media can be overwhelming due to the large amount of content and networks. However, social media signals are also a reflection of culture and can be used to positively shape culture. The document advocates treating social media signals as a form of public communication and being mindful of how signals can influence others and leave a permanent digital footprint. It encourages using social media strategically and intentionally to model inclusive values through online interactions.
The document discusses the use of social networking sites like Twitter, Facebook, and MySpace for connecting, educating, and informing others. It provides statistics on the growth and usage of these sites, and gives examples of how they have been used for campaigning, in emergencies, and in education. Various terms related to Twitter usage are also defined in the "Twittonary" section.

Transliteracy, customer service and the future ofAnthony Molaro
This document discusses the concepts of transliteracy and customer service in libraries. Transliteracy is defined as the ability to read, write and interact across different platforms and media. It is about helping people be creative and use their voice. The future of reference in libraries is discussed, with examples moving away from traditional reference models to more interactive experiences like book clubs in bars and libraries serving as community kitchens where patrons can produce their own content. The role of libraries is to provide patrons with tools and training to engage in knowledge sharing across different media.

Networked Scholars &...Authentic Influence?Bonnie Stewart
What does academic influence mean in an age of information abundance? This keynote delivered at the University of Edinburgh's #elearninged conference explores the idea of authenticity in the context of networked scholarship, and outlines ongoing research into why scholars use networks and how they read each others' reputations and credibility within them.
The document discusses the evolution of the internet from Web 1.0 to Web 2.0. Web 1.0 allowed for searching and reading information but little user interaction, while Web 2.0 enabled collaboration, sharing, and more dynamic content. Examples of how social media like blogs and YouTube have increased citizen participation and activism are provided, such as how Obama's 2008 campaign utilized these platforms. The Arab Spring demonstrations are cited as a case study of how the internet can help activists topple dictators by organizing protests.
Connect Your Own Dots: Social Media Integration as a Best PracticeSusan T. Evans
This session focuses on social media as a tool within your marketing and communications toolbox. Your audiences experience your brand and hear from you through an ever growing list of social media channels; but you can’t expect them to connect the dots. Instead, you need to develop a plan that will allow you to stay on message across multiple digital channels like social media aggregators, websites, editorial calendars, and social media campaigns. Remember, a social media strategy isolated from your broader communications/marketing strategy is a risk. We'll talk about specific suggestions and demonstrate best practices through case studies from educational institutions.

Exploring Digital Cultures W12: The Wikipedia DebateNoNeedforInk
Week 12 Wikipedia-centric presentation on:
-Clay Shirky's Personal Motivation Meets Collaborative Production
-Andrew Keen's Cult of the Amateur
This presentation walks through Shirky's points, explaining how Wikipedia is held as the ideal model of collaborative production in today's Web 2.0 world. However, it also goes beyond the readings in introducing the WikiScanner and all it has uncovered. This implies that the real issue may not be what Keen calls the "endless digital forest of mediocrity", but the fact that "Wikipedia entries are being used as a medium for corporate propaganda".

The State of Social Media (and How to Use It and Not Lose Your Job)Andrew Krzmarzick
Keynote address for the National Conference of State Legislatures (NCSL) Luncheon for Legislative Information and Communications Staff and National Association of Legislative Information Technology professionals on October 10, 2012.
The ecosystem of nonprofits is exploding, yet the problems society faces are larger than nonprofits, said Allison Fine, on the Care2 webinar The Networked Nonprofit. The solution? Networking. This was one of the key takeaways during the webinar presented by Fine, Beth Kanter, Danielle Brigida of National Wildlife Federation, and Mark Sirkin of Austim Speaks. “Nonprofits are fortresses trying to manage the message. Free agents will free you from your cage,” said Kanter. What’s a free agent? They are volunteers in your network. People who are passionate about your nonprofits issues and who want to make a difference! “Invite them in,” said Kanter. Brigida agreed. A truly "networked nonprofit" realizes that help is reciprocal and this is something the National Wildlife Federation is embracing in their constituent engagement strategy.
Sirkin said that nonprofits are too focused on ROI – Return on Investment, something many of us in the nonprofit community have been discussing as we continue to develop metrics to help measure social media’s impact. “We need to be focusing on ROE - Return on Engagement," said Sirkin
The document discusses the growing importance and use of social media by non-profits and donors. Some key points:
- Over 80% of wealthy online donors have made donations online and over 50% prefer to give online. However, the cancer center currently has no way for donors to give directly online.
- Most major cancer centers have the ability to take donations online, but only 11% of centers, including the one discussed, can only take donations through a general fund on their parent website.
- Social media use has grown tremendously and most people who are online use some form of social media. Successful non-profits are using social media like Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and Flickr to engage donors,
Online advocacy refers to actively supporting an idea or cause online through pleading or arguing. It is an inexpensive and fast way to reach new audiences globally and enable advocates to advocate on an organization's behalf. The document provides an overview of common online advocacy tools like websites, email, social media, videos, and petitions. It emphasizes the importance of understanding audiences and having a strategy before using tools to connect, share information, and enact change online.

It also outlines best practices for non-profits getting started with social media, such as listening first, engaging audiences and developing a long-term strategy.
The document discusses the growing necessity for Michigan libraries to have an online presence. It notes that while many libraries currently see their online presence as optional, recent studies show that libraries without a digital strategy are becoming irrelevant. The document analyzes the online representation of Michigan libraries of different class sizes and identifies common problems such as outdated websites and lack of accessible library services online. It proposes solutions such as using content management systems and social media to engage communities and address issues like usability and mobile accessibility.

The document recommends how nonprofits can use iThink to spread messages, recruit activists, build community, and fundraise through creating a Facebook page and posting opinions to invite participation. Testimonials praise iThink for encouraging intelligent discourse on a variety of topics and meeting like-minded people.

The document discusses the digital divide, defined as unequal access to computers and the internet. It presents data showing gaps between demographic groups in areas like home computer ownership, internet use, and access in schools. Specifically, people of color and those from low-income backgrounds often have less access. The document also examines how educational software and teaching styles can unintentionally favor boys over girls. This can contribute to the underrepresentation of women in computer science fields. Addressing these inequities could help reduce gaps in the digital divide.
The document provides tips for organizing notes in Microsoft Word using heading styles and the document map view. It recommends using heading styles to title each note and the document map view to display note titles in the left pane. Notes can then be grouped by similar topics using heading styles, with style 2 for main categories and style 3 for sub-categories. This allows easy searching and viewing of collected information by topic.

12. The Guerrilla Girls in Canada It's amazing that after 20+ years of existence, the Guerrilla Girls' message is still as resonant and needed as ever. Art museums average 15% women in curated exhibits, women of color .003%, and 4% of museum acquisitions are of work by women artists. Ridiculous. There's no question that the Guerrilla Girls' methods are funfunfun, but are they effective? I'm not blaming the lack of change on these creative, bad ass women, but I do wonder if their antics entertain the choir more than challenging the power brokers. Thoughts?

14. Campaign: Half a Million Kenyans to Unite Tools : blogs, facebook How these tools are being used: The Sukuma Kenya project was launched in the aftermath of the humanitarian crisis at the beginning of the year. The project is an online donation blog that was launched to raise funds for the thousands of people displaced by the crisis. Within 24 hours of its launch the blog raised US$ 1,500. Online activist Michael Bomet launched a Half a Million Kenyans Unite campaign to unite the people of Kenya against the corruption of the government. The campaign unites people through Facebook and through an on-line petition . The goal is to unite half a million Kenyans in a petition to reduce MPs salaries and privileges. Click on any Tool to read about campaigns using that tool.

Portable & Free Software Main Menu – Portable Apps on USB Stick Multimedia Apps on USB Stick To obtain Portable Apps, go to PortableApps.com to get portable versions of OpenOffice, Firefox, VLC Media Player and other software that requires major adaptation to make it portable. Or go to The Portable Freeware Collection which has many more apps than PortableApps.com and has very helpful how to install instructions .
This narrated (talking) version of the promotional PowerPoint for WS445 has a few minor changes in the slides & notes (box urging visit to our class wiki inserted on 2 slides; extensive notes about site traffic at Kimchi Mama vs City Mama added in Notes section of slide #10. Originally created this slide show (Nov. 2009) using the free OpenOffice.org Impress software and Saved in PowerPoint format. Later opened in PowerPoint and added some more slides, made a few formatting changes. Disadvantages of Impress compared to PowerPoint that I noticed Cannot copy & paste images – must first save image from Web to hard drive, then insert as picture from file. Cannot Crop images using a mouse (maybe can but I don’t know how). If click Crop icon in Picture toolbar, get a dialog box for entering numbers about where to crop – too complex for me. I opened the pictures in XnView and cropped them there, resaved, and then imported into Impress Clickable Links have full URL written out. In PowerPoint, if want to make the word video a clickable link to some long URL, clink insert Hyperlink, paste in the long URL, hit OK. Then on your slide the word video will appear in blue as a clickable link. In Impress, the word video will be replaced by the long URL (still clickable, but ugly).

Cursor turns to pencil to click on the black background and remove. Also used Fastone Capture (free Version 5.1) to capture the logos from various online Web tools.
