Presentation at the ALIA Top End Symposium

Posted by Sally SetsForth on Friday, October 28, 2011,

Survey: Twitter for professional development and career progression

Posted by Sally SetsForth on Friday, September 9, 2011,

I've created a short survey (about 10 minutes) that seeks to answer some questions relating to how library and information workers use Twitter for professional development and career progression.
