Listened to the webinar that was recorded on 11/14  Facebook

I've had a FB acct for 4 years approx.  Love it.  Keep up with family & friends day to day.  I can be in their lives  but still I am not really with them.  Fills my needs pretty much.

I have thought about a FB acct for our little library, in our little town but...

Like Kathleen said "unless you can keep it up-to-date it is not very useful"
 Plus it is a commitment.  Also I believe our emails to the "Friends group" is our best tool right now.

However, I'd LOVE to be able to have the commitment of time to put JC Library on Facebook.  I see where I could notify patrons about up coming events!   Get feed back daily from patrons on all areas of the library.  Keep the days and hours of operation of the JC Library posted .   Give our patrons access to books by book trailers, pictures and brief descriptions of books & magazines.  List our wishes on the page as in volunteers, furniture, instructors in classes, etc

Most of all it would be a great support system with other libraries to friend them!!

My house is quiet this afternoon!  Had our son's families here all weekend... FUN

Taught preschool all morning & have a few hours before going into book discussion @ the library. 

A Christian book group has started up.  Going great!  One book down & next selection already selected.
