A social media policy for a one branch public library » Librarians Matter - 0 views

  • “Social Media.” includes community created content sites like Blogs, Forums, Flickr, YouTube, Wikis, Social Networks, Twitter and other content sharing sites.
  • When you use social media your behaviour  and content is not only a reflection of you but also of (our) Library.
  • Social Media Do’s Be Professional – Talk the way you would talk to real people in professional situations. Be Courteous – Be sure to listen & ask questions. Be Accurate – Check your facts before you post and provide supporting sources if necessary. Be Useful – Add content because you have something interesting to say, not for the sake of regular posting. Be Intelligent – Provide some value. Don’t talk down. Offer insight. Be Conversational –  Avoid overly pedantic or “composed” language. Don’t be afraid to bring in your own personality. Be Non-confrontational – If you disagree, do so respectfully Be Prompt – If you need to moderate or respond to a comment do so as quickly as possible Be Identifiable – Use your real name and do not post anonymously. Be Transparent – Disclose that you work for the library if this is relevant and be honest & truthful. Social Media Don’ts Don’t Share Secrets –If you aren’t sure you can disclose something, just don’t do it. Think about privacy, confidentiality and permission to use other people’s content. Don’t Bad Mouth – Keep the language clean & avoid slamming people or companies. Don’t Complain – If you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say anything at all. Don’t do Stupid Things – If it doesn’t help the Library or our community, don’t do it. Don’t Defame – Show everyone respect. Don’t Forget your day job –Social Media can consume you so don’t forget your other duties. Moderate, balanced use is essential.

  • may be causing structural changes in the brain.
  • non-verbal cues such as body language and eye contact, which may be responsible for up to 70 per cent of our understanding of human messages, are not available to social media users, and therefore innate traits such as empathy are being diminished.

  • ''There are lots of social pressures to respond instantaneously, whether you've got your on-leave email tracker on or not, so that work-life balance is a growing issue … We're embedded in a culture where this is normative and we just do things without stepping back and reflecting and asking is this actually good for us or the next generation?''
