Libraries

There is a lot going on at OSU Libraries and Press – and many ways for you connect with us to find out the latest news, changes to databases, hours and events, and the countless things that make OSU Libraries and Press great.

One of the ways that we want to share with you and have you share with us is through our uses of social media; you can find links to the various social media tools we use in our social media directory. Since what makes social media work is the social interaction, we also encourage you to comment, re-tweet, and share your stories via our social media channels. In addition, we’ve also created a web form for you to submit your own ideas or suggestions for things that we should add or investigate.

We also want to share your experiences, enthusiasm, and ideas with others, so we reserve the right to use your comments in promotional materials, to use your stories to show others what makes OSU Libraries and OSU Press unique and extraordinary.

Many staff members at OSU Libraries and Press are involved in our social media projects and, like all of you, we are individuals and have different ways of expressing ourselves in our personal and professional lives. As members of this campus community, we follow OSU’s Social Media Policies and adhere to the Official Web Disclaimer. We’ve also come up with and committed to follow some rules in our online behavior, and we ask that you do the same. We will not post:

• Items or comments that are obscene, racist, derogatory, or similarly objectionable in their content
• Personal attacks, insults or threatening language
• Potentially libelous statements
• Plagiarized or copyrighted material
• Commercial promotions or spam

So while we encourage you to express yourself, share or debate, we also expect you to do so with respect, civility and common courtesy.
