  • “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.

      Mark Zuckerberg, a journalist was asking him a question about the news feed. And the journalist was asking him, "Why is this so important?" And Zuckerberg said, "A squirrel dying in your front yard may be more relevant to your interests right now than people dying in Africa." And I want to talk about what a Web based on that idea of relevance might look like. So when I was growing up in a really rural area in Maine, the Internet meant something very different to me. It meant a connection to the world. It meant something that would connect us all together. And I was sure that it was going to be great for democracy and for our society. But there's this shift in how information is flowing online, and it's invisible. And if we don't pay attention to it, it could be a real problem. So I first noticed this in a place I spend a lot of time -- my Facebook page. I'm progressive, politically -- big surprise -- but I've always gone out of my way to meet conservatives. I like hearing what they're thinking about; I like seeing what they link to; I like learning a thing or two. And so I was surprised when I noticed one day that the conservatives had disappeared from my Facebook feed. And what it turned out was going on was that Facebook was looking at which links I clicked on, and it was noticing that, actually, I was clicking more on my liberal friends' links than on my conservative friends' links. And without consulting me about it, it had edited them out. They disappeared. So Facebook isn't the only place that's doing this kind of invisible, algorithmic editing of the Web. Google's doing it too. If I search for something, and you search for something, even right now at the very same time, we may get very different search results. Even if you're logged out, one engineer told me, there are 57 signals that Google looks at -- everything from what kind of computer you're on to what kind of browser you're using to where you're located -- that it uses to personally tailor you
