Paseo Verde Library and Coffeeshop
Free Social Web Workshop
for Friends of Henderson Libraries
For those curious about social media, library friends’ friend Ron Mader leads a free, hands-on demonstration at the Paseo Verde Library. Please bring your smartphone or tablet. Check in and share book sale goodness via apps including Facebook, NextDoor, and Twitter.
Objective: We are trying to promote the book sales, so please let your friends know of this way to support local libraries.
Social Web Challenges
Online you can start by liking and sharing the Facebook pages for Henderson Libraries and the Friends of the Henderson Libraries:
https://facebook.com/hendersonlibraries
https://facebook.com/FriendsofHendersonLibraries
Tweet – Let people know what you find awesome about the library on Twitter. Retweet and share the tweets.
Nextdoor – This app is focused on the neighborhood. We’ll learn how to share news about the book sales.
Bonus points – learn how to download an audio book with Hoopla
A request for book sale photos – Take and share a photo from the book sale tables. Show off the breadth and depth of the current offerings. Please do not take pictures of people without asking their permission.
