OLIS: Twitter 101 Media Smart Libraries Workshop

Presenter(s)/Discussion Leader(s):

Catherine Damiani, Digital Services Librarian, East Providence Public Library

Libraries of all kinds are already using Twitter to good effect. Whether it is to broadcast your library events, converse with other professionals, or follow experts and resources, Twitter should be one of your library's communication tools. In this session you will learn how to use Twitter and discuss ways that this micro-blogging tool can facilitate the exchange of information. We recommend that you create a Twitter account ahead of time and bring your own mobile device.

This workshop is part of the Media Smart Libraries program which was made possible in part by the Institute of Museum and Library Services.

Intended Audience:

Public Librarians, School Librarians, Academic Librarianhttp://www.olis.ri.gov/services/ce/individual.php?code=twit1006
