Trends in Adoption of Twitter by Health Sciences Librarians.

There is substantial research on librarians' engagement with various social media platforms as part of their professional obligations. We were interested in examining librarians' use of Twitter outside of the context of a job-related, but still professional, context. To find out more, we invited health sciences librarians via Twitter to discuss the impact that the platform has had on their professional lives, offering this column as an opportunity to share their experiences. The case reports support the premise that Twitter can be an impactful communications tool and can benefit librarians in meaningful ways, both professionally and personally.
