Competency 7-Social Networking - Academici

This competency was an exercise in finding a social networking site related to my field of study - school libraries. After a long an uneventful search for a social networking site that did not require me to become a member I found the site Academici.



Academici is a " global resource providing a web-based environment in which knowledge workers can interact, collaborate, transfer knowledge and conduct commerce with each other, with commercial and governmental organisations" (www. academici.com)


In searching Academici I found a group under under the subject of "Library". This site had members from around the globe with library information. The first listing was for a search engine that would access different resources from around the world.




The url is : http://www.academici.com/index.aspx



I was not able to find a FREE-nonregistering site specifically for school libraries.
