Facebook in libraries - a(nother) real-life example!

At the library where I work, we have our outreach/marketing guy working specifically with social media. He has attended a training/seminar on all the different types of social media that libraries use, including a lot of stuff that I hadn't heard of before...and Facebook! Because he was less familiar with Facebook-- and there were a lot of questions from others at our staff meeting on Monday-- I was able to pitch in with some information that we've looked at during the preparation for our presentation! It was really exciting to know that Facebook is something that is valuable for many types of libraries, that connect with many types of patrons (the one where I work is a special library, where we work with customers who are federal grantees; the one we're presenting is, of course, a public library). Anyway-- not important, in a direct way, for our presentation/project, but a great example to reinforce the awesomeness of Facebook! :)
