Social bookmarking

I've known about Delicious for a while, but I never thought I'd have much use for it. Turns out I was right. There's really no point for me to use it, since I have all my favorite sites bookmarked on Chrome, and my laptop is always with me. I can see why people would like it (my AP English teacher used it to keep track of things she wanted to show her classes while browsing at home), but personally, I don't have much use for it.

Survey link

Take my survey!

Yayy!

I think surveys could be very useful, but only if we use them efficiently. An embedded survey would be much more useful and easy to take than one that the user would have to click onto another site to complete. We could have surveys on what materials patrons want more of, what they find most useful in the library, what could be done away with, etc.
