Librarians and Social Capital
- 8. Librarians build tools to enhance their true collection – the communities they serve. The community is your collection. Closing Keynote for ILEADU March Session. Springfield, IL https://vimeo.com/90151815
- 9. The community is the collection. If you want to be a brilliant librarian. If you want to make a difference in people’s lives . . . You must be active. You must see your community as your collection and you must be into collection development every day. Not sitting behind a desk . . .not waiting for someone to come to you and ask for help, but being out there and saying, “I’m here. You’re important. . . You are not in the library business. You are not in the book business. You are not in the building business. You are not in the website business. You are in the community business. Dave Lankes, Closing Keynote for ILEADU March Session. Springfield, IL https://vimeo.com/90151815
- 10. We’re all in sales. Selling isn’t just selling. Upserving means doing more for the other person than he expects or you initially intended, taking the extra steps that transform a mundane interaction into a memorable experience.

- 13. What is social capital? Resources and support accumulated by an individual, institution or group through relationships and the possession of a durable network. Tappable goodwill available
- 14. Social capital is what allows any organization or individual to make requests of its followers successfully. Think of social capital as funds in a sort of intangible bank account that you add to by listening to, engaging with, and doing favors for others. Each time you make a request, you are drawing on that account. If no social capital has been established from which to draw, actions requested of others are likely to be ignored. Having social capital is, in many ways, equivalent to having credibility in a selected online community. Social capital can be earned only over time, by participating appropriately in the community. Laura Solomon, on Save Ohio Libraries 2009, missing lack of followers & lack of social capital http://www.americanlibrariesmagazine.org/article/understanding-social-capital

- 23. Fundamentals: Don't criticize, condemn or complain. Give honest and sincere appreciation. Arouse in the other person an eager want. Six ways to make people like you 1. Become genuinely interested in other people. 2. Smile. 3. Remember that a person's name is to that person the sweetest and most important sound in any language. 4. Be a good listener. Encourage others to talk about themselves. 5. Talk in terms of the other person's interests. 6. Make the other person feel important - and do it sincerely.

- 34. Success is increasingly dependent on how we interact with others. Most people operate as either takers, matchers, or givers. Whereas takers strive to get as much as possible from others and matchers aim to trade evenly, givers are the rare breed of people who contribute to others without expecting anything in return. Although some givers get exploited and burn out, the rest achieve extraordinary results across a wide range of industries. ‹

- 46. Ask for readers’ favorite Oprah Book Club pick or their favorite program at the library. Try asking for opinions on the worst book ever written. The more controversial the question, the more feedback it will likely get. Although generating controversy for its own sake may not be your library’s goal, facilitating conversation between the library and others is something you want.

Notas do Editor
- Being a social media introvert is not a good idea. In a crisis we have to sell our message.
- During the Save Ohio Libraries movement in 2009, some libraries in Ohio jumped into Twitter. Undoubtedly, they saw it as another avenue for getting the word out about the imminent and catastrophic budget cuts being proposed by Ohio’s governor. However, two major factors prevented them from really using Twitter as an effective rallying tool.The first was simply a lack of followers. Numbers are not the only criterion for social media success (and certainly not the most important one), but some followers are needed to spread a message. When an organization jumps into a social media tool during a crisis before having developed followers over time, there is a distinct lack of audience to hear any pleas for help.The second was a lack of social capital.

- Friends know all the same people. Your good friends don't offer additional social information beyond what you already know. Bridges are usually weak ties. Weak ties facilitate information flow from disparate clusters of people.Weak ties help spread new information by bridging the gap between clusters of strong tie contacts. The strength of weak ties informs much of the popular understanding of information spread in social networks.

- “The ambivert advantage stems from the tendency to be assertive and enthusiastic enough to persuade and close, but at the same time, listening carefully to customers and avoiding the appearance of being overly confident or excited,”A new study published in Psychological Science suggests that not only are these stereotypes wrong, but there’s an entirely different personality type that stands well above the others in sales prowess.Study:Grant predicted that extroverts, contrary to popular lore, would not bury other personality types when it came to closing sales — but rather, ambiverts, people who are more or less equal parts extroverted and introverted would perform best.Forbes http://www.forbes.com/sites/daviddisalvo/2013/04/10/move-over-extroverts-here-come-the-ambiverts/
- Not an orientation. Beginning a relationship. About community needs. Not a bait and switch and talk about databases and books. Freshman assigned concierge,. Meet during first week face-to-face, look at schedule, texts, what do we have as ebook, where are your classes, what is a bursar. Teaching how to hack the info and other systems of the university. Professors grateful, come in.
- Always give credit. Laura Solomon: This applies to all content, not just retweets. Do you want to promote a new program that was a patron’s idea? Name the patron and link directly to that person if you can. People want to be involved when they know their name is going to be promoted. This is another reason why photos of patrons at programs are a popular way to get people to visit a website. The library is an organization that cannot exist without its community, so be sure to acknowledge that community whenever and as often as possible.

- Krulwick worked with Charles Kuralt and Kuralt worked with Edward R. Murrow. Kulwich talked about a new generation of professionals. After they wrote, they tweeted and facebooked and blogged their blogs, and because they were good, and worked hard, within a year or two, magazines asked them to affiliate (on financial terms that were insulting), but they did that, and their blogs got an audience, and then they got magazine assignments, then agents, then book deals, and now, three, four years after they began, these folks, five or six of them, are beginning to break through. They are becoming not just science writers with jobs, they are becoming THE science writers, the ones people read, and look to… they’re going places. And they’re doing it on their own terms! In their own voice, they’re free to be themselves AND they’re paid for it! . . .I notice that they get courage from each other. They’ve got a kind of community. At first it was virtual; they wrote each other. Then they met each other. Now they support each other. Watch out for each other. One day, I imagine, they will get and give each other jobs. And they share a sensibility, a generational sense, that this is how “we” do it.
