1. I visited https://www.pinterest.com/occclibrary/ This page shows you a lot of good information such as books that are banned, recommended books, and also gives research tips. Since they cover a lot of different area's if I were to have a Pinterest page I would like to set it up similar to theirs. They have a lot of helpful information.
I also visited https://www.pinterest.com/famulibraries/This is for a college in Florida and they share new book arrivals as well as give information about their facility. You can even reserve books through their page. I really like this idea since a lot of people use social media it would be a great asset to allow patrons to reserve books online so they can just stop by quickly and pick up their book.
2 .I read Doris Anne's blog and she discussed how she has been searching for a good book review blog but hasn't had much luck in finding any that reviewed the books and authors she wanted. Maybe this is lacking on Pinterest and some SDSL members could fill the void.

What are four kinds of things libraries are doing with Facebook?
Start a new post on your blog to complete this assignment.
1. Look at some library Facebook pages and give examples.
2. Read and comment on one of your classmate's posts on this question.
1. Yankton Library post pictures of new book arrivals, which is a great idea to get patrons in to check out the latest book releases.
2.Custer Library posts pictures of events that take place at their library. A great way to get patrons involved in their library
3.Lead Library posted about a fund raising event for their library. A great way to get the community involved with making sure their library has funds to keep providing them with current resources.
4.Potter Country posts their hours and location to help patrons know when they can come into the library.
I read Miranda's blog. I like her comments on what she likes about what each library does with their social media.
