Use of Weblogs (blogs) by Librarians and Libraries to Disseminate Information

This post is about the use of blogs by librarians and libraries to disseminate information to their patrons according to Judit Bar-Ilan (2007) from Israel.  I thought this article was very informational in showing how blogs can be used to market library events and resources.  Marketing is a big thing at some libraries I am familiar with at as a worker.  From first hand experience, I picture marketing on a blog as a one small path in reaching potential patrons.  I am convinced that networking personally is the best way to increase users into the libraries accompany with excellent pass and up-to-date public services.  This article is taken from a refereed journal that provided research in technological trends in librarianship, possibly in Israel.      Click on this link to download article
