Social media etiquette issues and standards of behaviour when using social media in a professional setting

In a professional setting, if you choose to involve your social media account in a professional setting... which means giving out social media accounts to other professionals it is advised that real names and photos are used. Limiting who can tag you, not: poking them, winking at other professionals or inviting them to games to is also advised. Being very weary and smart about what you post is recommendable, as well as having correct spelling.

Above is a summary of the link below:

Copyright implications with regard to uploading material to social media

Well, to upload other people's material to social media, if it has a copyright on it... One must have permission of the owner of that material to upload it to a social media site.

But due to more exposure, some are generally more then happy to have other people posting their work.

This is basically the general outline of what it says on the following link:

Important privacy issues when using social media

Privacy is a concern when using social media. To keep safe it's possible to limit who sees posts on some social media platforms as well as who even sees the profile. Personal details can be shared and it is up to personal choice how much is shared. One should be careful with using real names and work email addresses. The sharing of certain information can get one fired, create unwanted followings by stalkers or unwanted situations with cyber bullying and harassment. It's up to personal choice but for me, I think I have to keep my social media accounts very safe and professional when I am applying for a job or have a job. It could be a bad look for the company and the boss may not be too happy with the look created for the organisation.

Different ways libraries use a variety of social media tools

Social media tools of libraries engage the community with what's going on in the library, outline outreach programs from the library, outline history of the library and the country or the area, also include relevant and/or related beautiful images, describes problems that the library may be facing and showcases what sources the library has to offer. It targets people who visit or want to visit the library and be active or potentially be more active within the library. It can also be of help as of promoting and letting people know what's going on in the library.
