County’s Public Libraries System among Top 100 to Follow on Twitter

Montgomery County Public Libraries (MCPL) has placed 48th in the list of “Top 100 Libraries to Follow on Twitter” that also includes notable libraries and library systems in the U.S. and abroad. Topping the list were The Library of Congress and the New York Public Library.

The listing was compiled by Matt Anderson, an academic librarian, library lover and, currently, a product manager at a major library software company.

Anderson explained that the list reflects “…active libraries that provide great content on Twitter. They are quick to respond to people’s comments and questions, and their presence is felt around the Twitter library world. If you are trying to learn about what leading libraries are doing, check out the 100 Twitter handles.”

  1. Help. We need a bus up and down Old Georgetown Road for everyone!!!There are so many places we could go on the bus if it were available: the doctor, the hospital, the schools, the shopping center, the library, jobs, restaurants, the Metro, friends, and church. The 26 is going around EMPTY. What is that all about?

  2. I expect that the list was drawn up before the budget cuts. I wonder what the MC libraries placement would be today?
