You can have the best content in the world, but if nobody is following your library, people won't see it (with the possible exception of NSA data-miners and the staff at Facebook). Social media is a great place for libraries to spread the word about upcoming programs, new acquisitions, valuable services and more. Last month we gave some best practices to avoid common library social media mistakes; this month we’ll get into how to build up your followers without resorting to shady follower-buys and paid advertising.*

Credo's Guide to Immigration

Posted by Duncan Whitmire on 5/7/14 10:37 PM

Meanwhile, take a break from cable news hosts’ and political candidates’ wild speculation and rhetoric with some scholarly insights into this age-old debate found on Credo’s Topic Pages.
