A new session for PLAN in the US.

The return of the classic social media course for UKeIG, updated for 2022. Takes place over Zoom, with a focus on Instagram, Twitter and Facebook.

Some quotes from previous versions of this course:

“I’ll be bringing loads of new things back to teach others. I’m bursting with ideas. Great content, all legitimately relevant. Lots of good tips. I agree that everything Ned taught us can be used immediately as opposed to just talking about future trends like a lot of presenters do. Super practical!!”

“Fantastic day with Ned Potter. Lots of ideas, really knows his stuff. Really helps you choose what will work best for your library.”

“Fantastic! The hands-on exercises were useful - not only did they help the learning to sink in but also they encouraged us to think about real workplace-based ways in which tools could be used. The content was all very relevant because you had investigated what we already do/use. It all felt new and exciting.”

“Very well delivered and paced. Ned was really engaging and the workshop was definitely useful and thought provoking. Really enjoyable session, I left with a lot of respect for Ned’s attitude and advice on communications and felt that it was really helpful to hear from someone who actually understands libraries and how librarians work!”

“I really enjoyed the day, opened my eyes to lots of new tools and made me realise that digital marketing doesn’t have to be Facebook.”

I'm repeating the very popular course focusing on Twitter, Blogs and Instagram in a library context, for UKeIG. It takes place at CILIP HQ. Booking info here: https://www.cilip.org.uk/events/EventDetails.aspx?id=1194753&group=201314

I'm running this workshop for the Scottish Academic Libraries Consortium Training Group, focusing on Twitter and Instagram, as well as other social media. 

A UKeIG workshop, open to all, focusing on people already tweeting and blogging for their libraries. Details and booking form here.

As well as looking at the next steps on these platforms, participants will be able to submit their questions ahead of time to be covered on the course.
