Myspace!

I think that VBPL should reach out to teens via a myspace profile. Just as VBPL reaches out through IMing patrons/potential patrons, having a VBPL myspace profile would enable to the library to reach out to patrons that may not have otherwise come to the library. It's just a great way to connect with many young patrons!

Patrons will also see that libraries want to reach out to them; maybe, they will see that libraries can be fun, safe places to visit. The tone of a library profile may also attract or repel potential patrons; so, if VBPL has a page/is going to make a page, then it should be attractive.
