[Electronic Resources in Libraries discussion list]

*Social Media Outreach: Reels, TikToks, and More*

January 16-17, 2024



*Moderated by Tristan Draper and Margaret Dawson*



Please join us for an e-forum discussion. It’s free and open to everyone!

Registration information is at the end of the message.



Each day, discussion begins and ends at:

Pacific: 7 a.m. – 3 p.m.

Mountain: 8 a.m. – 4 p.m.

Central: 9 a.m. – 5 p.m.

Eastern: 10 a.m. – 6 p.m.



*Description*

Many libraries already use social media to communicate with their patrons.
Social media can shape how communities view libraries and interact with
them. In this e-forum we will explore social media platforms and tools that
can help libraries connect to and improve outreach to their communities,
and share tips for creating reels, TikToks, and more.



*Hosts*

Tristan Draper, MLIS, is the Student Success & Engagement Librarian at
Beloit College. She manages the integrated Library and IT social media
accounts at Beloit College.

Margaret Dawson, MLS, MA, has spent 22 years working in academic and
joint-use libraries. From 2014 to 2021, she worked at Texas A&M
University-Central Texas in Killeen, Texas as an Outreach and Instruction
Librarian, and has developed programs for university students, their
children, and the general public. She is currently the Co-Head of Public
Services and Outreach. She has presented and published on the topics of
instruction and outreach.



*What Is an e-Forum?*

A Core e-forum provides an opportunity for librarians to discuss matters of
interest, led by a moderator, through the e-forum discussion list. The
e-forum discussion list works like an email listserv: register your email
address with the list, and then you will receive messages and communicate
with other participants through an email discussion. Most e-forums last two
to three days. Registration is necessary to participate, but it's free.
