11 11 Behold the idea of networked individualism Barry Wellman – University of Toronto The turn from groups to social networks = a new social operating system

12 12 Networked Individuals have a different … Sense of information availability – it’s ambient Sense of time – it’s oriented around “continuous partial attention” Sense of community and connection – it’s about “absent presence” Sense of the rewards and challenges of networking for social, economic, political, and cultural purposes – new layers and new audiences

13 13 Implications for libraries – 1 You can be a node in people’s social networks as they seek information to help them solve problems and meet their needs

14 14 Implications for libraries – 2 You can teach new literacies - screen literacy - graphics and symbols - navigation literacy - connections and context literacy - skepticism - value of contemplative time - how to create content - ethical behavior in new world

15 15 Implications for libraries – 3 Can re-vision your role in a world where much has changed - Access to information -Value of information -Curating info means more than collections -Creating media – networked creators should be your allies

16 16 New ecosystem has changed the role that librarians can play in social networks The four-step flow of information attention acquisition assessment action

17 17 How do you…. get his/her attention? – use your traditional services (they still matter!) – offer alerts, updates, feeds – be available in “new” places – find pathways to people through their social networks

18 18 How do you…. help him/her acquire information? – make sure to offer services and media in many places – find new ways to distribute your collections – point people to good material through links – participate in conversations about your work with your patrons

19 19 How do you…. help him/her assess information? – exploit your skills in knowing the highest quality material – aggregate the best related work – when you make mistakes, seek forgiveness

20 20 How do you…. assist him/her act on information? – offer opportunities for feedback – offer opportunities to learn how to use social media – offer opportunities for community building

21 21 Why good social networks (and social networking) matter Healthier Wealthier Happier More civically engaged = better communities
