Hi Jesse, Smithsonian has a central social media policy available online (under Smithsonian Directives): http://www.si.edu/About/Policies A list of government and non-profit social media policies, dating back to 2009, is also available here: http://socialmediagovernance.com/policies.php?f=5
You may also want to post any questions to the #musesocial (Museums and Social Media) group on Twitter, or @MuseumCN would be happy to post the question for you and you can follow the hashtag for the answers. The group is very active and extremely generous in providing helpful resources and advice based on their experience. This group also has a wiki where resources and a schedule of upcoming online discussions about museums and social media are posted: http://museums-social-media.wikispaces.com/. I hope this is helpful, Vicki Victoria Portway Head of Web & New Media Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum 4th and Independence Ave, SW Washington, DC 20560-0316 tel: 202.633.2478 | email: portwayv at si.edu web: airandspace.si.edu social: airandspace.si.edu/connect > > > >On 17/06/2013, at 21.49, Jesse Henderson wrote: > >> Hi everyone, >> >> We're looking to kick start our social media presence (yes, we're a >>little >> behind).
