Web and Social Media Identify the best mechanism to manage the Association’s website and social media presence on an ongoing basis Investigate and identify an appropriate professional social media mechanism (e.g. LinkedIn) to improve communication and networking for members Collaborate with the Website Task Force, in particular to create a Procedures document to ensure a reliable relevant web presence

Publishing Locate, record and digitise existing publications, with an initial focus on the most recent decade, for access via the Association’s website Improve the presentation of Leabharlann-e Members’ Events Develop a shared calendar of events Assist members in the innovative use of ICT to make material and expertise more accessible

Public Events Examine Library Ireland Week and other mechanisms to promote the potential of library and information services Media Produce a code of conduct for liaison with the media Develop a list of media contacts and establish a mechanism for effective maintenance of same
