Thinking about 3 fledgling groups of users at my
library and museum.
Assignment 1: Hyperlinked Library MOOC, Sept 2013
Group 1
Patea Historical Society (PHS)
Patea Historical Society Has been around a long time. Members are mainly
older and conservative. Use the Museum for research and inspiration.
Currently share information through irregular newsletters. Some members are
wanting an online presence.
Group 2
Patea Proud Inc
Patea Proud Inc. is a newer group. They want to improve town and build our
community. Use the library for information, to hang out and as a meeting
space. Currently share information by phone. meetings and meeting minutes 
not always successfully.
Group 3
Teen readers
Teens, mainly girls, who have continued reading after the end of our winter
reading programme. Huge fans of paranormal romances. Share information
informally when hanging out at the library, and by leaving comments on books in
our online catalogue.
My choice
Patea Historical Society
I have chosen the Patea Historical Society. I feel the teens are online already,
and interacting with us, and Patea Proud may not be in a position to take
advantage of an online presence. Some PHS members want an online presence
so I could meet their need.
PHSs current use
of the Museum
Uses the Museum archives, reading room, and research facility.
Writes a (dry) newsletter.
Has irregular slide and movie nights.
Wants to expand to include more people.
What could a virtual space
offer?
A meeting place.
A quicker way of disseminating information.
A place to share photos, notes, maps etc.
A way of advertising what the group offers.
What resources could they
benefit from?
A ready made virtual space.
Informal training in how to use online resources.
Help with reaching a wider audience.
Help with sharing their resources with more people.
How would I create
this community?
I think initially I would need to create, then drive, whatever was created and,
over time, train interested members to look after it for themselves.
Id build the online presence by using it regularly myself & reaching out to
others.
My preferred technology
I think they need a two step approach:
A Facebook page for quick communication, using the events feature to
schedule meetings and share old photos etc with the public.
A blog where they can create pages of different resources for more
permanent access, and to post news to. The two could be linked.
My skills for creating this
virtual community
Keen blogger; maintain 6 blogs; 3 personal and 3 business.
Can model good online behaviour and participation.
Good at working with the public.
Interested in seeing them succeed.
Engagement Plan
Making Contact
Phone call to the President to see if he is interested.
Aattend a meeting and talk kanohi ki te kanohi (face to face) with the members.
My sales pitch
Talk about benefits of instant communication.
No need to travel, so can extend membership beyond geographical area.
Good for older members who may not drive at night
Gives the group the ability to share Pateas past with a worldwide audience.
Explaining the connection
Encourage them to see the virtual world as a meeting room open 24/7 to them.
Talk about how the Museum shares its collections via eHive, and how this would
enable them to join in those same conversations.
Gives members an opportunity to learn new skills in an informal setting.
A final
thought
Having written this assignment, I am sold on
the potential benefits for the Patea Historical
Society and am going to approach them to
discuss putting my plan into action.
