Lowrider Librarian: Twitter for Organizations

Contains useful descriptions of what Twitter is and how an organization can make best use of it. It is from a librarian and is much more relevant than the 100 uses post because it has a specific context; “If you are an advocate, PR person, outreach librarian or technology person, Twitter® can be of great use to you and your community”. Some of the useful parts define common terms, suggest specific uses and provide some ideas for policies regarding its use.

- SAVING AND SCANNING
  
  Web-based technology is making inroads into scholarship on the American
  author Herman Melville in two new projects.
  
  The new multilayered online edition of the existing manuscript fragments of
  Melville's first book, Typee: A Peep at Polynesian Life, published by Rotunda,
  the electronic imprint of the University of Virginia Press
  (http://rock.ei.virginia.edu:8104/melville), allows the reader to follow
  Melville through the drafting and revising of that text. Users can compare and
  contrast versions — with the manuscript evidence placed alongside a reading
  text or "base version" and the text of the first print edition. The project is
  the brainchild of John Bryant, a professor of English at Hofstra University and
  the editor of the Melville Society, which publishes Leviathan: A Journal of
  Melville Studies.
  
  No manuscript of Melville's classic 1851 novel, Moby-Dick, survives. But on
  the Web at Melville's Marginalia Online (http://www.boisestate.edu/melville),
  Steven Olsen-Smith, an associate professor of English at Boise State University,
  has recovered the notes that Melville made in his copy of a critical source for
  Moby-Dick: Thomas Beale's 1839 book, The Natural History of the Sperm Whale. At
  the Web site, an edition of Beale's book has been transformed into a browsable,
  searchable PDF file with check marks, underlinings, and notations inserted in
  the spots where Melville had them. The annotation for each instance is accessed
  by positioning the cursor over the spot at which Melville
  scribbled.

You should never try to abandon the community aspect,” says Michael Vedders, director of web technology, of the student-to-student and professor-to-student relationships formed during a typical Bethel education.
Bethel podcasts are traveling beyond campus too. They’re in the ears of parents and potential students who can get a feel for the school by listening to chapel speakers or downloading condensed video of football games, band performances, and Welcome Week videos. They’re also in the ears of alumni who live far away or are unable to attend certain events such as Homecoming.

- “I’ve received e-mails from non-Bethel listeners, ranging from a graduate student in Denmark to a naval officer in Virginia,” says Gehrz.
- iTunes U acts as both a promotional tool for Bethel and a public service
