Hosting a chat

Interested in hosting a chat? Want to suggest a topic? Get in touch with the outreach coordinators of the DLF Digital Library Pedagogy Group!

Step by step

  1. Identify hosts (usually 2 people). If hosts have never led a Twitter chat before they may need to gain access to the @CLIRDLF Twitter account and the DLF wiki (write to info@diglib.org to get edit access).
    1. Put out an open call for hosts on DLF-Pedagogy and DLF-Announce.
    2. Invite leaders of the DLF Digital Library Pedagogy Group to host.
    3. Host the chat yourselves, as chairs of the outreach subgroup!
  2. Identify a topic. Browse previous chats for inspiration.
  3. Write questions in advance.
  4. Post questions to upcoming chats so that participants are able to view and consider questions ahead of time.
  5. Send questions to DLF-Pedagogy and DLF-Announce email lists one week in advance, and promote on @CLIRDLF Twitter and your own Twitter accounts.
  6. Send reminders to same channels one day in advance.
  7. Schedule tweets in TweetDeck to go out from @CLIRDLF account. For more on scheduling tweets, see advanced TweetDeck features.
  8. Host the Twitter chat!
  9. Archive the chat.
    1. Create a Wakelet story using the DLF account (write to info@diglib.org for login info).
    2. Create a TAGS archive of the Twitter chat, and upload the CSV to the DLF Digital Library Pedagogy Group space on the Open Science Framework (OSF).
    3. Add links to both the Wakelet story and the TAGS spreadsheet on OSF to the page for this Twitter chat on the DLF wiki.
  10. Share archived chat to DLF-Pedagogy and DLF-Announce.

Tips

  • No more than 4–6 questions per hour.
  • Share questions ahead of time.
  • Encourage participants to answer with “Q” and the number of the question being discussed to make it easier to sort, e.g. "Q2: I think that…"
  • Consider using TweetDeck while participating so that you can primarily follow the chat’s hashtag.

Example

Below is a 6-question chat with intervals of 8 minutes between question tweets. A 5-question chat usually has intervals of 10 minutes (e.g. 2:05, 2:15, 2:25, 2:35, 2:45).
