Viewer Question Answered: Should My Library Use Twitter’s Revue Newsletter Service?

Watch Now

The Library Marketing​​​​​​​​ Show, Episode 101

In this episode, I answer a viewer question from Natasha Buran of Thousand Oaks Library. She asked, “I was curious if you’ve seen other libraries use ‘Revue’ – Twitter’s newsletter tool for writers and publishers. I thought it would be interesting to add monthly programs or resources and pin it to our profile. I haven’t seen libraries use this feature before and thought I’d ask.”

I gave my answer in the video. This is just my opinion of course!

Kudos in this episode go to the Topeka-Shawnee County Public Library. They recently opened a resource center for community members without a computer or internet access.
