Article on social networking use in libraries

Hi
Those of you who get 'Library Link of the Day' will have seen the article "Libraries woo patrons on the Web - Plug in to social networking sites". It discusses Amanda Werhane from the University of Wisconsin Wendt Library.

The article states "Amanda Werhane, liaison librarian and marketing coordinator at Wendt, runs the library's blog (wendt-library.blogspot.com), which features a collection of links and notes about useful research tools and journals. She's also set up a Wendt Library page on Facebook, MySpace and Friendster and posted library pictures on Flickr, the photo-sharing Web site." They use instant messaging and chat reference to answer questions.
