Social media for researchers

Hawk in Kathy's garden, WA.

I've just been reading the useful little booklet from RIN called "Social Media: a guide for researchers" It's an attractive little booklet which explains why researchers need to engage with social media and how they can use the different tools in their research life. It gives a nice summary of the different kinds of tools available and makes a handy reference guide for developing a training session. You can download the PDF or order free print copies of the whole booklet. I particularly like the one page of "links and resources" which makes a great handout for workshops.
