Just returning to cpd23 after a gap and some hols so am trying to catch up again!
My main problem with looking at so many things all at once is that it is difficult to really evaluate each of the online networks properly. I managed to join LinkedIn but need to return to it to add a profile. I figured this would take some time to devise properly so did not want to rush into it. I have not fully worked out the making connections bit yet or how to use the network successfully. However having received some emails from various colleagues people are finding me and I can see I now have some connections – note to self to try to get my head around how LinkedIn works!
I am still a bit wary of Facebook at the moment so have decided not to join until I fully understand all the privacy issues.
I had a quick look at LISNPN and have noted this online network as potentially being useful to my CILIP Mentees but one network at a time is probably all that I can cope with joining myself at the moment. The Librarians as Teachers network looks a useful source of information and one that I might potentially join at some point.
I discovered that I had previously joined CILIP Communities but have not really made use of it. In looking around in the CILIP Members blog landscape I found a post which led to a very relevant article about the use of ipads for roving enquiry support which we are currently planning ourselves at Glamorgan. I will probably return to CILIP Communities more regularly from now on.
