I would also echo what others are saying, in that anyone can use social 
media for work purposes, we just have to remember the different audiences.

I think that cataloguers get to see a lot of (if not all?) the material 
whereas front line staff may only see what is borrowed by readers. I 
think this puts cataloguers in a unique position to showcase the 
material that the library has that may otherwise be hidden away. That's 
what I would really like to do for my department. We are legal deposit 
so get anything and everything. With a lot of it, unless we promote it 
who will know it's there?
