I wanted to share one of my blogger posts to my Twitter account and how I did this was by having both my blog and my twitter open. I selected the post that I wanted to share and then I looked at the bottom of the post and selected the Twitter share button. It then took me to compose a twitter post and after I put in what I want my post was ready to be shared.

Libraries have approached social media in all manner of different ways, some libraries branch out over Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Flickr and many more. Social media is a great tool for libraries to use it makes the costumes aware of times and any important dates coming up, it can also share activities that have been taking place at the library.
Here are some links I have found that connect to different libraries and their different social media accounts:
Here is the State Library of Victoria's social media page for Facebook and it contains a large amount of promotional advertisement for their current exhibitions.

If someone breaks a copyright rule even unknowingly it can lead to them finding themselves in a lot of hot water. Here is a link that everyone should look over before they start adding photos online:
