Media Practices

This chapter reviews the current literature on the types of social media practices in college and university libraries, and suggests some new strategic agendas for utilizing these tools for teaching and learning about the research process, as well as other means to connect libraries to their users. Library educators continually hope to “meet students where they are” and use social media to “push” library content toward interested or potential university patrons. One new way to improve engagement and “pull” patrons toward an understanding of the usefulness of licensed resources and expert research help is through the channels of social media. By enhancing awareness of library resources at the point of need, and through existing social relationships between library users and their friends, libraries can encourage peer interaction around new research methods and tools as they emerge, while increasing the use of library materials (both online and within the library facility) in new and different ways.

Evaluation Parameters

The article describes challenges facing university libraries in different historical periods, identifies the most stable prior areas to form a system of indicators. It shows that a university library as a part of a higher education establishment environ acts as an element of the education system and changes in accordance with trends of its information space development, changing the orientation vector, when performing tasks, maintaining original functions (educational, culturaleducational, scientific-informational, social ones). The conclusions suggest that the indicators system to evaluate a university library activity should reflect completeness and availability of a library collection, customer orientation in library-information services, as well as an economic efficiency of library resources costs.
