Are you wondering what social networking tools are all about, and if they can help you in your daily work activities? The new MLA Task Force on Social Networking Software is here to help! Charged by MLA president, Mark Funk, to identify, evaluate, and recommend appropriate social networking tools for MLA groups, this energetic Task Force is currently evaluating as many tools as it can, to guide you to the best ones available. The Task Force is documenting how to use these tools successfully, and is interested in engaging with the MLA community while doing so.

The Task Force encourages members to read and respond to the posts at its blog so that your enthusiasm and concerns is incorporated into its work.

The Task Force has already completed a survey of MLA members about their current use of social networking software, and the summarized results may be found on the Task Force blog.

If you have questions about how to apply these tools to your MLA group, or just want to know more about what we’re doing, drop us a line!
