Social media is changing how libraries engage with their communities. The document discusses how libraries can get more involved with social media through experimentation and flexibility. It also provides an exercise where participants discuss in small groups how their library can make social media more effective and identify next steps. The homework assignment is to engage with social media platforms like a young person would to better understand different generations' needs.
