Twitter (Thing 5)

Okay I signed up and have 14 people I am following that I did not click to follow. So now I have to learn how to unfollow.

As far as use in the library world:

Quick reminder about a program that is about to start where to send patrons.
Quick announcements
Let others know about a good book you just finished because you are so exited about it.
Quick reminder about a meeting
See what other libraries are tweeting about.

Some libraries on Twitter:
NPL have a digital pic of the day. Patrons can connect with the library on Flickr.
Birmingham Public Library/Birmingham Alabama. There is an Eventkeeper with event postings and Flickr.
Kansas City announced on Twitter that they have posted the events calendar on Facebook.
Corpus Cristi PL posts announcements about exhibits, programs, book sales.
American Libraries the ALA magazine is tweeting too.
