Book excerpt: Web 2.0 first created a scramble among librarians to participate in Facebook, YouTube, blogs, and other social media applications, and the turn is now towards management and consolidation.

Provides practical ways of thinking about social media for library managers and leaders Provides examples of policies, workflows, and uses of social media tools for library managers and leaders Defines organizations as coordinated systems and discusses how social media tools can emphasize the benefits of coordination

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, nine librarians from across the country describe their libraries’ best practices in this key area. Their contributions range from all-encompassing customer service policies and models any library can both adapt and be proud of to micro-approaches that emphasize offering excellent user-focused technology planning, picture book arrangement with patrons in mind, Web 2.0 tools to connect users with the library, establishing good service delivery chains, and making your library fantastic for homeschoolers. As past Public Library Association President Audra Caplan writes in her introduction to this book, “There is nothing magical about providing excellent customer service; it just takes the right people, the right philosophy and the passion to make it a reality.” If you’ve got all that, here are the best practices to make stellar customer service a reality for your library’s users.

Book excerpt: This work skeptically explores the notion that the internet will soon obviate any need for traditional print-based academic libraries. It makes a case for the library's staying power in the face of technological advancements (television, microfilm, and CD-ROM's were all once predicted as the contemporary library's heir-apparent), and devotes individual chapters to the pitfalls and prevarications of popular search engines, e-books, and the mass digitization of traditional print material.

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.
