Description
Introduction Marketing of library and information services is essential. Libraries have used marketing channels such as the traditional media: newspapers, corporate newsletters, radio, and TV. Many libraries produce brochures, pathfinders, and their own newsletters. It is not surprising to see libraries using blogs as marketing tools as well. A blog is a user-generated website where entries are made in journal style and displayed in a reverse chronological order. They can provide commentary and information on a particular subject or act as a more personal online diary. Blogs combine text, images, and links to other related or interesting sites. Readers can leave comments, making blogs interactive. Most blogs are text, although there are also photoblogs, sketchblogs, video blogs (vlog), or audio blogs (podcasting). These are all part of the wider network of social media.
