Didn't know until today that when I'm looking at our website's number of hits I was checking out our "metrics". This only shows the interest in our library's web presence and doesn't indicate the specific pages being viewed. Since I have rarely had any comments on this blog or the library's blog (which is new since I started using this one for class work.) according to our class today, it would seem like I am not reaching anyone with this format. Perhaps I should just stop the blogs altogether. Seems like a waste of time that could be profitably spent elsewhere!
I have a personal account with Goodreads. It was interesting to learn that Shelfari has a device that can connect from a website. I never found out if there was a similar thing for Goodreads, but I'll look into it. That would be a great way to notify patrons of new books without posting in several locations.
That might be more useful for our library than having a Facebook page. I really am leery about starting a Facebook page for the library. I'll keep pondering over Christmas....
I have a GOODREADS account but will also look into Shelfari. One of the library patrons was going to start a web page to keep track of their reading so I directed them to Shelfari. She called back and said she had it all set up in a few minutes and was very thankful. So perhaps I will switch. Another New Years' project!
