[OPLINLIST] A tip for libraries with Facebook accounts

For those libraries that have Facebook fan pages, you may notice that 
your page's URL is typically long and unwieldy.  Once your page has 25 
fans, Facebook allows you to claim a custom, easier-to-remember URL 
(e.g., /www.facebook.com/examplepubliclibrary/).  To do this, I believe 
the URL is http://www.facebook.com/username/.  It's much easier to 
advertise a simple URL like this!

You can see the current list of Ohio public libraries on Facebook at:

(Please email support at oplin.org <mailto:support at oplin.org> if yours is 
missing, or if you get a new URL)
