Social Media is ubiquitous in today’s world, and the ability to connect from the palm of your hand allows organizations to extend their reach quickly and easily. Librarians have endless choices of tools and platforms, but the most important factor in your success is a well-designed social media plan. W8H and Jennifer Jumba will help you think critically about what tool to select, how to use it, and how to effectively build allies in your community.

On March 13, from 6:30-7:00 pm PST, SLASC will be hosting a virtual social (half) hour. Join us and get to know your classmates! This is a great time to ask questions, network, and even commiserate.
