灾难发生后，新闻报道和在线平台往往会记录公共图书馆为社区提供支持的快速反应。尽管目前的学术重点是灾难中的社交媒体，但社交媒体作为图书馆服务的延伸的早期使用需要进一步的审查。联邦紧急事务管理局(FEMA)确认飓风桑迪是美国最早使用社交媒体进行响应的灾难之一。这项研究特别考察了选定的公共图书馆在桑迪事件后将Twitter作为信息工具的早期使用情况。结果可以为图书馆在应对未来灾难时使用社交媒体提供信息。
After a disaster, news reports and online platforms often document the swift response of public libraries supporting their communities. Despite current scholarship focused on social media in disasters, early uses of social media as an extension of library services require further scrutiny. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) recognized Hurricane Sandy as one of the earliest U.S. disasters in which first responders used social media. This study specifically examines early uses of Twitter by selected public libraries as an information tool during Sandy’s aftermath. Results can inform uses of social media in library response to future disasters.
