PostUsing Facebook groups for increased library involvement
by Art Morrical on Thu, 04/30/2009 - 7:30amWe are opening a new library building but have not been able to pass a operating rate increase referendum. One new way to increase participation is get the community involved with an interactive Facebook group. We started a Facebook group, "Fans of the Sugar Grove Public Library". Please jon us as I welcome your input on how to get the community residents to join and get more involved. What incentives do you offer folks to get there and then stay involved? Thanks for your support and ideas.
PostIncreasing Participation?
by Aaron Dobbs on Wed, 04/29/2009 - 12:10pmWhile looking at the election returns statistics this week several folks had the same question I had... "I wonder why the turnout was so much lower this year?"
Along with the election, I wonder what we can do to increase participation (both in Association activities and on ALA Connect).
Any ideas? (It's the end of the semester here & my brain is mush)

(oh, as I scroll down to post I see that the audience is "social media mavens". Hi Mavens!
