Social Networks

The idea of using social networks with teens is great. I suspect they are much more apt to use them than to view a library's default web page. I very much liked the Brooklyn College Library's. It was colorful and full of all kins of information.

I can see where it would be a very useful tool for libraries. Living in a small rural area we have a hard time getting teens to use the library. They come in only to use the computers and either play games or use MySpace. Maybe this would be a good way to get them using the library more.
