Abstract
Social media platforms are the primary communication mechanism among students on college campuses in the United States. Libraries using social media channels to promote services and connect with their communities may wish to expand their social media presence by creating innovative content to support their teaching initiatives. YouTube is a powerful and popular social media channel libraries can use to post a range of content to enhance their presence in their community. This column provides an overview of current college students' use of social media, highlights some advantages of YouTube, and provides some best practices libraries can follow with social media initiatives.
期刊介绍：
Public Services Quarterly covers a broad spectrum of public service issues in academic libraries, presenting practical strategies for implementing new initiatives and research-based insights into effective practices. The journal publishes research-based and theoretical articles as well as case studies that advance the understanding of public services, including reference and research assistance, information literacy instruction, access and delivery services, and other services to patrons. Articles may examine creative ways to use technology to assist students and faculty. Practice-based articles should be thoroughly grounded in the literature and should situate the work done in one library into the larger context of the situation.
