Kroski discusses foundation secondary school social media policy for staff, providing examples of prevalent social networks and tools and recommendations for safe and responsible use. Clarification of guidelines and standards is endorsed regarding acceptable content; respect for the facility, faculty, students and public; comprehension of copyright and fair use laws; accuracy in posts; good judgement and responsibility and the addition of disclaimer if voicing personal opinion.

Developed by school administration this policy is initiated with acknowledgement of the facility's reputation within the community and therefor designed to extend propriety standards. Provided are the names of social networking sites without description; rights, responsibilities and confidentiality expectations of the entire school community and recrimination for policy breaches. The only mention of benefit appears somewhat begrudging; GPHS "accepts" that social media tools can be effective and are widely used (ok, if we have to!).

"Produced in collaboration with Facebook" (p 1) an as opening statement brought immediate judgment and criticism, however this article examines pertinent questions regarding school environment and cites relevant resources and case studies of interest to a school and library creating social media policy. Suggested is a 7-step procedure: "examine school culture; organize a team; research; draft policy document, incorporating feedback; presentation of document to school board and legal advisor; introduction to school community" concluding with "review periodically". This was a defining resource on creating school social media policy.

Tucker acknowledges that each school must tailor social media policy to suit the institution and patrons, including use of specific filters and general guidelines regarding responsibility, respect and basic privacy. Included are adoption of a library social network circulating services and resources and constructive suggestions regarding incorporation of networks and tools into the curriculum with practical exercises to demonstrate student comprehension of safety, public/privacy settings, tagging and research with a variety of sources.
