Are you on social media? So are
we! We have recently launched an effort to
bring more timely information and a wider diversity of content to our Facebook
(New Ridgefield Library) and Twitter (@ridgefieldlib) accounts.
Facebook and Twitter are great places to get updates about what’s going
on at the Library. In recent weeks, this
has meant, among other things, a lot of notifications about weather-related
closings and schedule changes! Our
weekly e-newsletter and other e-mail program announcements are also posted to
both sites.
Many of our staff are now actively involved in posting items and links we
think our library users might enjoy – reviews of new books, author interviews,
research studies and even silly photos and videos. For example, a recent Facebook post about
“The Goldfinch” prompted a lively dialogue among readers (and non-readers) of
this weighty volume! On Twitter watch
for #FridayReads, where we, along with many other book people, post the books
we are currently reading.
We would love to know what you think about the items we post. We urge you to follow us, like us, comment,
share, re-tweet or otherwise contribute to what we hope will be an ongoing
conversation about libraries, books, our community and much more.
