Social Media & Volunteer Recruitment

At the VAN Conference we received ideas for workshops for next years conference.  Social Media is always a big one but does your agency give you access to their Facebook page or does it fall under another department?

Has anyone had success with recruiting volunteers using social media like Facebook or Twitter? Have you used Facebook as a way to recognize volunteers? What are some other ways you have or would like to use social media?

We would love to get your comments.  Thanks.
