| Summary |
"This book is an argument for making social media fit your library. Managing Social Media in Libraries explores the developing information environment, collaboration among library organizations, and ways social media may convert the loose connections between library staff members into meaningful cooperation. The book takes librarians beyond the mechanics of using social media, and establishes a framework to move library managers and leaders toward making social media effective. The argument here is that social media in your library must make sense for your library. It is about weighing needs and resources and considering how staff members work as an organization, because this book is not really about technology at all. It is about people, interaction and engagement."--Publisher. |
