Content
The Libraries SA Facebook page (page ID Libraries SA) is managed by the Public Library Services (PLS) Strategic Projects and Communication team, on behalf of colleagues across the South Australian public library network and PLS. We may occasionally use some automation (such as tools which generate tweets from RSS feeds) but intend that this will not dominate the messages posted. We aim to connect with the community online. Our posts will include:
- upcoming events happening in SA public libraries
- alerts about new content on our other channels (news, publications, publicity campaigns etc.)
- links to interesting and useful information about SA public libraries published on our website and the Internet, and
- invitations to provide feedback on specific topics.
