Tweets from Homer Library

Check out our tweets! Homer Township Public Library is now on Twitter and also has a Facebook presence. Here's the scoop.

Facebook - Facebook is a social networking site that allows users to create profiles and networks. Users can interact with each other through posts, surveys, and games. The Library has a Fan Page here. If you are a Facebook user you can become a "fan" of the Homer Library. The library's page contains info about upcoming programs, book discussion lists, and photographs.

Twitter - Twitter is a social networking tool that allows users to connect and communicate with each other through short messages known as "tweets". The Adult Services staff has begun to create a twitter presence for teens and adults. Plans for use include promoting events, new websites, and new books as they come in.

Web Site - The web site goal has been to reach our users in their territory, so to speak, so that they find the value of visiting and seeing what the library is about. We are increasing our visibility to the teen and young adult demographic via the site. We have plans to consider a "library shop" where people can purchase t-shirts, etc., and the library receives a donation from any sales.

These communication tools help us continue a dialogue with you and extend awareness of the library's many events and great resources in a manner that's convenient and most comfortable for you. We hope you visit us soon - in person, online, or however you choose!

Yes, You Can... do more than ever before @ Homer Township Library!
