Lots of experts will tell you how to succeed at social media, but very few will lay out a clear path to failure. Learn what the most common points of failure are for libraries, and why libraries often aren’t getting what they want out of this new medium. Find out if your library is on its way to a social shipwreck and how you might be able to change course.
Keynote: Laura Solomon, MCIW, MLS, is the Library Services Manager for the Ohio Public Library Information Network and the former Web Applications Manager for the Cleveland Public Library. She is a 2010 Library Journal Mover & Shaker. Her book Doing Social Media So It Matters: A Librarian’s Guide was published in late 2010 and The Librarian’s Nitty-Gritty Guide to Social Media was published in 2013.
Please note that this is an interactive workshop and participants will need to bring a laptop.
