Specifically, libraries might observe that not only are social networking sites here to stay, but that they provide opportunities to connect and stay connected with diverse groups, particularly older teens/young adults.
In a broad sense though, libraries, seeking a heterogeneous mix of the population they serve, should observe that our virtual meeting places and congregating online reflects the same social stratification that exists in the physical world. In order to connect with and remain relevant to a wide range of people, libraries need to have a presence in multiple areas and sites.
