Do you have a facebook fan page? If not, you really should create one. In any case, why limit your facebook fan page to information about the library, photos, and announcements? Your facebook fan page for your library is a great place to offer and teach library literacy to your patrons, students, staff and faculty. Here are some ways you can do this with a facebook fan page.

1. Post polls as mentioned in number one and then share the results of the poll via a note with comments.
2. Post notes that offer library literacy tips.
3. Create videos that highlight one library literacy tip in each one.
4. Use the widgets offered by many library database providers.
5. Ask questions and take note of who answers them and respond back.
6. Post podcast or audio files with tips.
7. Post a survey and offer a prize to those who reply.
