ALA Emerging Leaders 2009 - Team U Project

LITA Social Media Wiki

This wiki was created as part of the ALA Emerging Leaders 2009 Program by Team U. Team U's project was "to determine the appropriate social software functionality to deploy to meet the needs of the membership". For more information on Team U's Emerging Leader's project visit http://wikis.ala.org/emergingleaders/index.php/Project_U_(2009). This wiki provides tips and suggestions on how LITA can use social media to connect with members and to increase membership. The wiki focuses on Twitter, Facebook and ALA Connect but also includes tips for using Flickr and YouTube. For a brief video overview of LITA and social media plus, how to use social software to connect with members, watch our LITA and Social Media video.

Note: The information in this wiki are suggestions for LITA based on research done by Team U as part of the ALA Emerging Leaders Project. The guidelines and other content are not the official guidelines or policies of LITA.

The Sidebar on the right side of the page includes quick links that provide easy access to key documents.
