We were keen to hear a go, we already used Twitter in our library to make announcements and to promote events and items in our collections. In October 2012, we joined in on an Australian session of the Twitter group, which was chaotic but fun enough to be encouraging. In November, we did a presentation of the Nelson Tasman Regional Natural Digital for the Barkam The Twitter group and the following week we had a trial discussion with nine library staff and one member of the public. According to a post session questionnaire three participants have found it fun, four found it fun but confusing and one just found it frustrating. On the basis of this we did more education on how to use Twitter, how the group would work and how to use hashtags. We did a small presentation to our local regional librarians group prior to Christmas 2012 and made flyers and posters to put around the library. We also asked our local independent bookshop to help us to promote the group and we had small articles in the December and January issues of our free council newspaper Levin Alson. And just to explain this, it is actually supposed to be moving at the moment because we have got people tweeting from all over the world but I'm not quite sure why it's not loading. But anyway, just to mention that it's moving. From this year the group has been renamed Read Watch Play with participants being encouraged to talk about what they're watching and playing as well as what they're reading. There are logistical problems with the Trek group that encompasses Australia, Singapore, Denmark and New Zealand. And specifically these are time zones and language. The group is across four time zones, three of the countries more or less coincide with chats. So 8pm Australian time is 6pm Singapore time and 12 noon Central European time but it's Tannot Pop in New Zealand. So we kick off at 9 o'clock on the last Tuesday of each month with most of the other participants joining in at Tannot Pop New Zealand time. The language issue is a problem in Denmark where many of the people interested in the group are not very good English speakers. This is managed by the participating librarians using a monthly themes in their library book discussions with users and the librarians participating in the group chat sessions. Public Library Singapore participation was initiated by a group in charge of digital content and social media. They use sites like blogs, Twitter, Instagram and Facebook to cater for local preferences and increase relevance to local readers. They alternate between the RWP chats and have separate Twitter chats on local themes on the other months at the moment. It's Susan Price on another Twitter. There is a rewatch playblog with all the core information as well as postings during each month's theme. It's Pinterest account which is becoming more active and Instagram account and of course the Twitter stream that's managed by hashtag. The hashtags are used to search throughout the month and also during the live chat sessions. Participants from around the world are able to tweet according to the set monthly theme at any time in the month, accumulating an approved discussion on Twitter on the last Tuesday of the month using the hashtag RWP chat as well as the theme hashtag for that month and of course it's the last Tuesday of the month tonight. The organising librarians from different countries communicate in various ways. From face-to-face meetings from the New South Wales librarians to all the countries having meetings via Google Hangout. The monthly chats are said to participants via a story by where they are archived. We all participated in the writing of a joint paper on the Twitter group via Google Docs and the paper was presented to the satellite session of the IFLA World Congress in Singapore in August with some of us who were not able to go like us to go tweeting into the session. There was a lot of interest in the concept of that presentation and Ellen is hopeful that one, if not a couple of new librarians from around the world will join the group possibly adding the United States to our globe. So the Nelson experience. Throughout 2013 we tried to relate activities to the read watch play themes of the month. Promoting the group are a face-to-face monthly book chats and our one-off activities. For example during March which was New Zealand book month we held a readers' evening on the theme of eco-read which was the RWP theme for that month and invited Jane Connor, a distinguished publisher in environmental books and guides as a guest speaker. We promote the group via large posters and flyers in the library and also via Twitter and from about half way through the year via Facebook. New Zealand has contributed four guest blogs to the RWP blog this year and we have linked our customers to the RWP blog via tweets, Facebook and the book group page on our website. The program has not been a huge success. Initially we were getting an average of about an average of about half a dozen librarians a month joining in from New Zealand but that has started to decrease and we have no way apart from those who tell us they do of knowing the numbers of staff or customers who either observe or don't participate or who participate and don't use hashtags, we don't use hashtags we don't know that you're tweeting. We posted an invitation on the New Zealand lip-list service in July to try and get more New Zealand librarians tweeting and we got one interested reply to the posts but no apparent new participants at the following discussion. One barrier for New Zealand participation is that our sessions start at 9 o'clock which many consider too late. The sessions are beneficial to our staff. It's good professional development, engaging librarians from different countries and exposing themselves to a wide range of books and ideas but we also want the sessions to be a way of engaging with those customers who cannot make it to our face-to-face bookchats for those who are increasingly accessing our library services remotely because of the slight interest in the flyers and customers asking about the group we are apparently not attracting participation from our customers. We want to increase the number of non-library participants and also the number of non-New Zealand public librarians participating. So join up. There's going to be a chat this evening on MotorRead for November I'll send some of you to celebrate the staff shared authors from Mark Twain, HD Wells, Hardie, Radio Pickley etc. We are sure it will range more generally over books by books. With a larger number of participants we could possibly look at an earlier start time as the discussion would be self-sustaining this evening. It's at 9 o'clock. So if you want to join in, you just search on MotorRead and every time you write a tweet you just add in the hashtags as well. MotorRead and RwP. We've got protection on your Twitter account, unprotection tweets from duration sessions. Keep searching on MotorRead and add MotorRead in our RwP chat on your tweets. Keep clicking on all to load on your tweets. Sorry, I just have to go. It's close to do there. Just pick up. Here we are. So any questions, comments, suggestions for how to get this moving? Or is this not the appropriate forum for a book chat type discussion which is a big question? It is actually a lot of fun. And like Nicola was saying, one of the big advantages for us as the professional development side of it. The last discussion we had was EgoRead and a lot of the discussion was around how libraries actually shell biographies like a paper under the 920s or a paper under the subject. One library in New South Wales put their biographies under the fictional recreational reading to promote the news. And so, forget it. We do it various with staff and trying to get them on board into sections of Twitter. Laura and Susan, they're really keen. This is the woman who started it all in New South Wales. It's a mixture. It's a real mixture. Some people think it's a great place. Some people think that it just doesn't give you enough space. And by time, the job is by time, little hashtags to kind of engage with different people and things. You kind of want that for the lot. So that can be a bit frustrating. And also some people just find it, they can't think that put you to keep engaged with the discussion. But it does work, it's good. No, Australia is. And it's a quantum thing for more people in there. You need at least three facilitators because there's more and more conversation going on at one time. And all of a sudden you realise it's a big on three that you want to join in to, that you don't really seem to be a big on conversation. But yeah, there are some people who find it just way too confusing. And that's fine. But we are sure that there are other people who find it a great place. And it will be nice to hear from people who see it. There's sometimes Nicola and I are in New Zealand. For the staff, we did that for the staff. We have really found it forward to customers apart from in the book chat sessions that we run. So that's important. But that's because they're an older group that perhaps not the ones who would engage with their Twitter meeting groups. I think there are other people out there who haven't quite reached. Is it a combination of people who are used to it and having the right choices? Yeah. What really puzzles us that we've got lots of clients around the library and people come up and talk to us about the group and they seem really interested and we say that we'll help set them up and everything. But we must never see them online on the Tuesday in the evenings. I'm not quite sure why. There was a woman from Queenstown who came up and said this is exactly what I want because I had a local reading group and she was very comfortable online and we just never saw her again. Have you ever had any interactions with authors on Twitter? No, we haven't actually. I'm not knowingly. I'm sure there are some who are unpositive authors in there. But again that would be a really interesting way for them to interact with us. Yeah, we follow a lot of books because authors and librarians are just mega Twitter users like it's worth not to shut up by often on Twitter. It's always Twitter. And actually, it's getting harder just because we've got a very inelosyn lots and lots of authors and getting damn involved would be a fantastic thing to do. So we should market it to authors' group. Yeah, it's a great idea. I know there's a lot of content called Sci-Stuge and it is encouraging students to get scientists and get first hand at the meeting on them. Yeah, it would be quite an interesting concept. Have a guess. Yeah, that's what we have. Catch some of the nine o'clock. The blogs are really great because they quite often have a guess. And they have, for a primary, they had a court artist. You know, people have gone and drawn you and caught them, not you, but people have gone. And they did this really great blog on how they go in and what they do when they do it. And there was another one like can you solve crimes by watching CSI and they had an inspector from the police that came and wrote that one. But yeah, getting the best Twitter would be good. Yeah, because we had enough music that we could start it early but yeah, with only a few of us, that's really good. And also it's quite different, the different dynamics of the different countries. Sometimes it's actually quite good to engage more with New Zealand writing but it doesn't often happen. And that was particularly interesting because we had an indigirid theme, which proved actually incredibly challenging because Alison said that she was tweeting about New Zealand and the Australians actually didn't engage much with it at all because that culture isn't as strong. They were really, really interested in the New Zealand side of it that it would have been really good to engage more with fellow New Zealanders on that particular subject. They had a great blog up which kind of and that's where I think the microcontext stuff was really challenged. I'd like to discuss some of those issues that I would move equal to and the effect of that on both my own and my own New Zealand. You know, a hundred new characters in minus though it was very easy to be misinterpreting at every moment. You would have seen it for the things that next year they've taken that sort of discussion out of it because it's just too very interesting. Have you considered not using the time? I mean, keep on saying I don't know if I was a problem. Have you tried doing it? Does the time matter? I think it does just in terms of I don't know for some reason they think it's too late to start something. We had a trial that was earlier because we just did it with another group and that actually was a long time trial. The reason it's nine o'clock though is because to engage with the Australians in Singapore and all over the country so it's kind of otherwise it's just too early or too late for those people. So, that's the idea of the group at the moment. All we're doing to light it up has to be an opportunity where we can actually choose a more convenient time. Especially nine o'clock is quite late when you're going on to about midnight and you've got to stay sharp. Yeah. It's about three Australians that come online with us at nine o'clock of hours which so it was eight o'clock they came to do an extra two hours of tweeting before they went into nine o'clock of the morning of hours. But again, if there was enough of us we could do it for an hour and then they could all join in. But Denmark's great like they're really funny when they get it. Nine o'clock tonight low read and RWP chat I'll sleep but why do I need my towers? More in your power. Yes. Once again.
