CPL 2.0 TWITTER


I have never really been interested in Twitter and after having a look at the site I know I won't be using it. As far as I can tell the Library tweets are mostly related to programming which is already included on our website. There is too much irrelevant conversation taking place on the internet and not enough 'face to face' interaction. (Of course I don't know one young person who would agree with me!).

CPL 2.0 LIBRARYTHING

I found this site very easy to navigate and I did manage to set up an account. I used both Amazon and Library of Congress to add books to my library. My daughter will also be using LibraryThing; she wonders why we didn't discover it earlier! We think it's great.
