Alexandria covered the basics, what is Pinterest, how to use it.
She also made comparisons to other photo sharing platforms such as Flickr.
The program was was well attended. Over 25 librarians/educators from across the country were there to learn and share ideas.
The discussion was lively and there were many good suggestions for how libraries can and are using Pinterest to do everything from promoting library services and events, to uses for classroom instruction.
