Notes
Abstract: When used effectively, Twitter is a dynamic avenue for libraries to connect with the public in order to promote collections, programs, and special events. Tweeting professionally is a learned skill that necessitates a creative outlook and a targeted outreach strategy based on your organization's strengths. This presentation will prompt attendees to identify their audience and their allies in order to better broadcast their message. Advice will be drawn from first-hand experience managing a Twitter account to promote a library-based digital humanities project. Further resources will be recommended.
