Librarians in Training: Twitter for Librarians

• Are you completely new to Twitter and struggling to start? Or are you already on Twitter but know you could be making better use of it to promote yourself and your library? Join Librarians In Training for an interactive workshop aimed at helping librarians to make the most of their time online.

• This interactive session will give you the chance to enhance your Twitter skills. For those new to the platform there will be guidance on what Twitter can be used for and how to get started whilst those already using Twitter will benefit from learning how to engage library users, promote their service and enhance their own professional network.

• The session will include both advice and practical exercises so you can put your new knowledge to the test.

• You must be a staff member of one of the Cambridge Libraries (College, FDL, Affiliated, Institution or UL) to attend this session.
• For further information please see our eligibility criteria

If you wish to fully engage with the practical exercises, please ensure that you have access to a Twitter account that you are happy to use to try things out with. There will not be time in the session to set people up with a new account.
