=======New In NNELS Tweets=======

#NewInNNELS is the hashtag we use when we talk about new books that have been added to the repository. 

They consist of a chain of tweets: an intro tweet, a few tweets on individual books (3-5), and a conclusion tweet (examples below). The tweets are generally written by the production assistants, and will be emailed to the social media coordinator.

All you need to do is write a single tweet for the title you are working on. Once you are finished a title, please include the draft tweet in a comment in the RT ticket.

<note>The maximum word count for a tweet is 280 characters. This includes hashtags. The Project Coordinator will add the link to the title as it does not exist until after publication.</note>

The Tweet should include the following:
  * Book Title
  * Author
  * Short description of book and its audience, or some factoid or comment that might intrigue a reader (this can be cut and paste from any website that summarizes the title. e.g. Goodreads, Indigo, Amazon, etc..
  * Mention if it is an award winning or nominated book (optional - only if there is space)
  * The file format in a hashtag:, i.e, #EPUB #MP3
  * The hashtags: #NewInNNELS, and #a11y

====Q&A Archive====

Q: I am just writing the tweet for Peanut Goes for the Gold, and I noticed that there is no available link to the record in the collection. The title is not searchable. I tried to search by author, and there was only one book in the collection by Jonathan Van Ness. Should it be searchable by now?

A: The title has not been published, so it is not searchable. You don't have to worry about getting me the links for tweets, as I am the one who will be publishing all the books you create.
