ISA on Twitter

Are you using the Twitter social network? ISA has been using Twitter for some time now to share news and link with other academic associations and scholarly groups. Our Twitter feed is found here. You are welcome to follow us to receive frequent updates on ISA activities as well as links of interests. We "re-tweet" Twitter posts from journals, think-tanks, publishers and exhibitors that we think will be of interest to our community.

The social network also has a very useful feature called Twitter Lists that allow us to build curated lists focused on one particular subject. We currently offer the following lists to which you may subscribe/follow:

• ISA Exhibitors - tweets from our annual convention exhibitors, including publishers, institutions and think-tanks.
• ISA Cooperating Organizations - tweets from organizations we have accredited as Cooperating Organizations.
• Journals and Publishers - tweets from journals and publishers in the social sciences.

We plan to start a new Twitter List called ISA Members which will group ISA members on Twitter. This is an opt-in process, no one will be added to the list unless they specifically request it or they follow ISA on Twitter. Why opt-in? We know that although many scholars maintain Twitter accounts to share their professional interests, others have personal accounts for sharing with family and friends. We would like to respect the privacy of our members and we think an opt-in method does that. If you are a member and would like to be publicly associated with ISA on Twitter, please let Joel Davis know at joeldavis@isanet.org and he will add you to the ISA Member list.

We hope you enjoy our efforts to engage with social networks.
