Week 12: Wrap up; social networks and catch up

Hi again
The library I work in focuses more on younger children's needs and activities. I think we could do more with the teens in our library. We could build a library My Space with them. They could meet to plan the space, what it should look like and what it should include. We would need to develop guidelines for blogging, and making friends and so on. We could have links to online safety and library resources - the library catalogue could be on their My Space accounts. I believe social networking in a public library is another way to connect with teens in the community.
Well, that's pretty much it. It's been a long and interesting 12 weeks. All in all it's gone pretty smoothly and I've learnt so much and enjoyed all of it. So take care and will catch you later.
