Interesting article on social networking and libraries, but what I find most useful is the long list of posts and blogs and sites relating to MySpace, Facebook and more. The Denver Public Library's MySpace connection is very engaging as are some of the college sites.
The author of the article mentioned that many students 'couldn't' find the library on the university home page (though it seems easy enough, she commented) but could through a Facebook connection. In fact, visitors can even search the library catalog from some site profiles and in some cases, find lists of books, CDs and movies of interest to teens and college students.
Some good cases for social networking in and around libraries.
