Subject: [IFLA-L] IFLA/FAIFE survey on librarians' social media use internationally
To: ifla-l@infoserv.inist.fr
IFLA social media survey link: www.surveymonkey.com/IFLAsocialmedia
Dear Friends and Colleagues:
Social media has become a hugely important force in the world, and the historic events in recent months have proven how integral they are to how we engage, learn, and communicate in 2011.
In an effort to learn more about how librarians, library workers, library students, and library associations use social media, the Free Access to Information and Freedom of Expression committee of the International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions has developed a short survey on these topics. Our hope is that the results will allow us to better communicate with those in the worldwide library community – using the most effective tools at our disposal. We’re also very interested in those who DON’T use certain social media, and why not.
Please take a few moments to complete the survey – and share it widely with your colleagues and members! http://www.surveymonkey.com/IFLAsocialmedia

P.S. We also have a survey for library-related associations’ use of social media; for more information about that, please contact Jonathan Kelley at jokelley@ala.org.
