Review of NGAG Twitter use and engagement 2014-2016

The New Generation Advisory Committee (NGAC) is a committee of the Australian Library and Information Association (ALIA). The key objectives of NGAC are to increase new graduate participation in the Association and contribute to the development and delivery of services for new library and information services professionals and student members of ALIA.

From 2014-2016, NGAC undertook a review to better understand the use of Twitter by NGAC members to determine how well tweets engage with the target audience and reflect their concerns and interests. The review also sought to identify opportunities for improved online engagement.

The report includes five recommendations to improve Twitter engagement amongst new LIS professionals.
