Week 3 - CPD23
Thing 4: Current Awareness - Twitter, RSS and Storify
I know I am a bit behind
schedule but I am sure to catch up in the next week.
As for the CPD23: Thing 4 on
current awareness, as I had mentioned in my earlier post, I have maintained two
separate accounts on Facebook – one is my personal and the other is SFIT
Library. I am keener on keeping active my professional account – SFIT Library
as it seems to be the order of the day. Unfortunately, I have been able to
gather only 5 people. Just hope I will learn the marketing tactics through the
CPD23 course as I proceed!
Twitter: To be unpleasantly
honest, I am a bit apprehensive about setting up a Twitter account and giving
the usual updates about “every happening thing” around me. All the same, I know
this is just one side of the coin and so I would set up a Twitter account for
SFIT Library in the following days.
RSS: I have been using Google
FeedBurner on my library blog.
Storify: Yet to learn how to
use it advertently. Actually I am not able to draw the thin line between
Facebook and Storify for giving updates to my library users. I can might as
well link to the news-article or clipping from the my facebook account.
Hence, need to look into Storify
a bit more scrupulously!
