Creating an academic web presence

July 8th, 2011 by Mita

This summer the Leddy Library and the Humanities Research Group is sharing some of the Digital Humanities Work currently being done on campus through a Summer Series.

The next brown bag talk this will be on Wednesday, July 13th, running from 11:30 am to 12:30 pm in the 4th floor boardroom at the Leddy Library.

Candace Nast is the GATA Digital Outreach Coordinator and a sessional instructor in Women’s Studies and she will help guide you through the process of  Creating an Academic Web Presence:

Facebook. Twitter. LinkedIN. Google+. Blogs. Pages. Profiles. Aaaarrrgh!

Creating and maintaining an online presence is something we might be tempted to push to the bottom of our very long to-do lists. However, taking control of how others find and see us online can be empowering, exciting and can lead to new connections and opportunities in our professional work. Learn about the variety of tools available and begin developing your own online presence to showcase who you are, what you do, where you’ve been, and where you’re headed.

Laptops are encouraged! Please join us!
