Well, adding the Facebook widget to my library's home page is increasing our Facebook fans dramatically. What a cool tool! We'll see how many fans we get by summer's end.
I follow many other libraries around the world with my Facebook account. It's cool to "friend" or "fan" them, and see what they post, what they are doing, etc. It's a quick way to stay informed of what other libraries have going on.
I was already a member of 3 groups: Texas Library Association Members (self explanatory), NextGen Librarians (a network for "young" forward-thinking librarians), and Lipstick Librarians (just a random, fun librarian clique). In honor of this "thing," I have added a couple more:
1. Librarians and Facebook (where I can hopefully get more ideas about how to use Facebook to promote my library)
2. American Library Association Members
3. Library 2.0 Interest Group (a group interested in using Web 2.0 technology in libraries)
