This week I have ventured into Bebo and had a look at the Auckland Library bebo page then I searched a few names and saw the pages of friends' children!! I did feel like I was prying so I then went and had a look at Facebook where I created a login, it was rather amusing that in occupation they are really expecting you put in a high school or university the only other option being company or nothing. I signed up as a fan of Hennepin County Library. I continued to explore Facebook having a look at some of the groups in the food and drink category. The pages are quite good to dip in and out of as they have small snippets of information, video clips, photos and forums. I can see the attraction these forms of networking have.
What I liked about the Hennepin Library page was the way it encouraged response and interaction with customers. It encourages a sense of belonging to and identifying with the library for individuals and that the library values and respects their thoughts and comments. Facebook is a way of pushing the library out into the community and reaching people.
