    Pinterest as a Tool: Applications in Academic Libraries and Higher Education
    (University of Regina Library, 2014-08) Hansen, Kirsten; Nowlan, Gillian; Winter, Christina
    This article will look at how the University of Regina Library is currently using Pinterest to engage and interact with the University community. This social tool has not only appealed to librarians, but educators as well. Pinterest is starting to have an impact on the way educators teach and present information and ideas to their students. This article will look at the process that the University of Regina Library underwent in creating a Pinterest account: beginning with copyright considerations and questions used to determine whether content can be added; moving to the launch of the account and adjustment of how it is used, including a list of best practices coming from the research; and ending with potential usage in terms of teaching both within the library and for faculty and staff.
