Barbara Faermark acknowledged that, as a business owner, she could no longer afford to stay off Facebook.

She mostly communicates with clients of Marc Printing & Graphics by phone and email. Social networking is the next frontier.

Weve fallen behind the times, Faermark said. Its time to jump in.

Migrating to the web to better interact with customers and colleagues is on the mind of other Lincolnwood organizations. Even masters of monstrous book collections are excited to embrace technology.

Social media is a fantastic tool for communication, said Julie Anne Nitz-Weiss, assistant director and head of community relations for the Lincolnwood Public Library.
