   Hennepin County Library’s TeenLinks also has RSS feeds on everything from our News Flash Blog to book lists. We also collect and display teen generated book reviews.

   It’s wonderful to see this list. I’m glad the number of libraries utilizing technology for teens growing.

   I am in the process of creating an online book group for teens with blogger for our library system. I will not be the only staff member who will moderate the blog, so I am trying to create a list of procedures for staff members to follow when someone posts something that is inappropriate for the blog. Do any of you have similar procedures? Thanks for your help.

   The Weymouth Public Library has a teen blog at http://tuftsstuff.blogspot.com. It’s used mostly to remind the Teens which events are coming up. We’ve also posted some audio files of Teen Poetry and Book Reviews there.

   This is a great resource! The Fairfax County (VA) Public Library has: a blog for teens — we’re required to call it a moderated discussion — at http://fairfaxlibraryteens.blogspot.com/, RSS for teen events (and others)on http://www.fairfaxcounty.gov/l.....vents.htm, and MySpace at http://www.myspace.com/fairfaxpubliclibrary, s. We also have a Flickr account at http://www.flickr.com/photos/fcpl but no teen events are shown there yet.

    “MySpace - Libraries on MySpace appeal to teens!”

    Is this true, or just an aphorism? I’ve heard from teens that MySpace is a good source of library information, but I’ve also heard from the same teens that they want MySpace for themselves. They’re not pleased with organizations, especially ones they consider to be “authority” (read: school or library) being on their turf.

    I’ve thought the same thing myself at times. I wonder, “will this teen feel comfortable with me making a comment on their profile”.

    Maybe instead of being a “public entity”, a librarian could consider making a profile for THEIR OWN PERSONALITY. I’m experimenting with both right now, and I’ve found that some teens love to banter back and forth with me. Others seem more stand offish.

    I think it the viewpoint changes from teen to teen.
