Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The advent of new technologies has changed the scene in the information world. Today, information is available at the users' fingertips through social media. Social media can be a Trojan horse for libraries. New technologies shorten the distance between the library users and the rest of the world through tools and sites such as YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, and Pinterest. It is a real-time connection, where users can subscribe to other users' activities, and share new ideas and technology. Libraries should find strategies of sustaining relevance without changing the role of the library. This book introduces libraries to new technology, showing how libraries, with strategic planning, can effectively use this new technology. Today, many people, including librarians, interact in the online world. People watch and comment on YouTube videos, comment on a friends' Facebook, and read and post blogs. Despite this, users might not necessarily know how to use social technologies effectively and meaningfully. This book shows how librarians can utilize social media effectively and more efficiently. The adaption of these tools will also help library professionals to communicate, participate, and add value to their experience by allowing them to access and share knowledge from available sources.

Download or read book Library Services and Incarceration written by Jeanie Austin and published by American Library Association. This book was released on 2021-11-17 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As part of our mission to enhance learning and ensure access to information for all library patrons, our profession needs to come to terms with the consequences of mass incarceration, which have saturated the everyday lives of people in the United States and heavily impacts Black, Indigenous, and people of color; LGBTQ people; and people who are in poverty. Jeanie Austin, a librarian with San Francisco Public Library's Jail and Reentry Services program, helms this important contribution to the discourse, providing tools applicable in a variety of settings. This text covers practical information about services in public and academic libraries, and libraries in juvenile detention centers, jails, and prisons, while contextualizing these services for LIS classrooms and interdisciplinary scholars. It powerfully advocates for rethinking the intersections between librarianship and carceral systems, pointing the way towards different possibilities. This clear-eyed text begins with an overview of the convergence of library and information science and carceral systems within the United States, summarizing histories of information access and control such as book banning, and the ongoing work of incarcerated people and community members to gain more access to materials; examines the range of carceral institutions and their forms, including juvenile detention, jails, immigration detention centers, adult prisons, and forms of electronic monitoring; draws from research into the information practices of incarcerated people as well as individual accounts to examine the importance of information access while incarcerated; shares valuable case studies of various library systems that are currently providing both direct and indirect services, including programming, book clubs, library spaces, roving book carts, and remote reference; provides guidance on collection development tools and processes; discusses methods for providing reentry support through library materials and programming, from customized signage and displays to raising public awareness of the realities of policing and incarceration; gives advice on supporting community groups and providing outreach to transitional housing; includes tips for building organizational support and getting started, with advice on approaching library management, creating procedures for challenges, ensuring patron privacy, and how to approach partners who are involved with overseeing the functioning of the carceral facility; and concludes with a set of next steps, recommended reading, and points of reflection.

Book Synopsis Social Media and Library Services by : Lorri Mon
Download or read book Social Media and Library Services written by Lorri Mon and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-05-31 with total page 73 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The rise of social media technologies has created new ways to seek and share information for millions of users worldwide, but also has presented new challenges for libraries in meeting users where they are within social spaces. From social networking sites such as Facebook and Google+, and microblogging platforms such as Twitter and Tumblr to the image and video sites of YouTube, Flickr, Instagram, and to geotagging sites such as Foursquare, libraries have responded by establishing footholds within a variety of social media platforms and seeking new ways of engaging with online users in social spaces. Libraries are also responding to new social review sites such as Yelp and Tripadvisor, awareness sites including StumbleUpon, Pinterest, Goodreads, and Reddit, and social question-and-answer (Q&A) sites such as Yahoo! Answers—sites which engage social media users in functions similar to traditional library content curation, readers' advisory, information and referral, and reference services. Establishing a social media presence extends the library's physical manifestation into virtual space and increases the library's visibility, reach, and impact. However, beyond simply establishing a social presence for the library, a greater challenge is building effective and engaging social media sites that successfully adapt a library's visibility, voice, and presence to the unique contexts, audiences, and cultures within diverse social media sites. This lecture examines the research and theory on social media and libraries, providing an overview of what is known and what is not yet known about libraries and social media. Chapter 1 focuses on the social media environments within which libraries are establishing a presence, including how social media sites differ from each other, yet work together within a social ecosphere. Chapter 2 examines how libraries are engaging with users across a variety of social media platforms and the extent to which libraries are involved in using these different social media platforms, as well as the activities of libraries in presenting a social "self," sharing information, and interacting with users via social media. Chapter 3 explores metrics and measures for assessing the impact of the library's activity in social media sites. The book concludes with Chapter 4 on evolving directions for libraries and social media, including potential implications of new and emerging technologies for libraries in social spaces.

Book Synopsis Information Literacy Skills and the Role of Social Media in Disseminating Scholarly Information in the 21st Century by : Baskaran, C.
Download or read book Information Literacy Skills and the Role of Social Media in Disseminating Scholarly Information in the 21st Century written by Baskaran, C. and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2023-06-29 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The storage of information lies within the basic components called binary devices, and at present, storage media falls into two categoriesrandom and serial (or sequential) accesswhich require different amounts of time to access a given piece of data. The typical serial-access medium is magnetic tape, which has a storage density that has increased considerably over the years. Vast quantities of source data are collected, digitized, and compressed automatically by means of unique instruments in fields such as astronomy, environmental monitoring, scientific experimentation and modelling, and national security. Information capture that is generated by an individual, in the form of packages of symbols called documents, is accomplished by manual and, increasingly, automatic techniques. Data that is entered into instruments manually, such as keyboard strikes, is a process that is comparatively slow and error-prone and often requires the use of computer programs with supporting editing software for formatting, grammar, spelling, and more. With the evolution of technology and its impact on human society, the social sciences have begun to describe this new version of society as a post-industrial or the information/knowledge society. Such terms attempt to capture the unprecedented development and use of information and communication technologies and the fact that information generation, processing, and transmission have become the fundamental sources of productivity and power. An exploration into the impacts of the modern knowledge society on the ways in which academic researchers utilize, distribute, and record data from their fields of study is necessary for further comprehension, protection, and maintenance of this ever-expanding body of information. Information Literacy Skills and the Role of Social Media in Disseminating Scholarly Information in the 21st Century analyzes the various factors of information literacy skill for disseminating scholarly information in the 21st century and increases the awareness level of social media use by researchers for sharing information. Covering topics such as information literate pedagogy, information literacy instruction, and ICT and learning in the knowledge society, this book is ideal for librarians, teachers, research scholars, students of library and information science, knowledge mangers, and information scientists.
