Did you know that you can follow the library on a wide variety of social networks?
The blog that you're reading right now has hundreds of entries dating back to 2007.
Subjects run the gamut from library resources to glimpses of Tarleton history.
This is still the world's largest social network, with over a billion users worldwide.
The Tarleton Libraries have been on it since 2009.
Keep up with the latest news and events by liking our page.

Flickr is a free photo sharing service.
Though it may not be as popular as it once was,
it's still a terrific destination for hobbyists and professional photographers alike.
You can also find sample pictures from various camera models.
The Tarleton Libraries have over four thousand pictures on the site.
Our account is filled with great pictures that we didn't have room for
in our other social media posts. Our account is like a giant photo album.

Instagram has over 77 million users. Our Insta account has great pictures and videos
that will give you a quick "snapshot" of what we're doing.
For example, the three pictures below, from left to right, feature:

- a picture of some of our great student workers, for Student Worker Appreciation Day
- some of our library employees wearing teal shirts for Sexual Assault Awareness Month.

mention the library (don't worry, we'll ask your permission first).
