Marketing our Library services is an important
issue and involves making sure readers don't
miss out on what we have to offer.
Connecting users via Web 2 offers some options
such as starting up a Facebook page. I will also
be including some of the features in 23 Things
in our inductions for the next academic year.
Zotero is a piece of referencing software I have
recommended to students in inductions.
I do think that Librarything would be a good
resource to use for home cataloguing.
I don't use LinkedIn mainly because I don't
know anyone on it.

I have previously set up a Linkedin page but
rarely use it and do not think it's a tool
I will use in the future.
I set up a personal Facebook page earlier this
year and dip in and out of it. Having a Library
page is something we have been considering.

LibraryThing is very user friendly and ideal
for setting up a catalogue for a small collection
of books - but I would not use it for
Departmental Library purposes.

The main reason for doing 23 Things has been
to pick up ideas that I can pass onto my users.
There have been a few suggestions that I will
include in the Library inductions for next term.
