Just finished reading in one of my genealogy periodicals about facebook for genealogists. Applications such as "We're Related" and other genealogy focused groups and pages can bring a wealth of connections to genealogists. And sometimes this is what genealogy is all about, connecting with distant relatives who might just give us that one piece of info we need.
My daughter keeps encouraging me to add my profile to facebook. I will soon so I can keep up with some of my family that I don't see too often.
As far as libraries using the social networking, the generations under age 30 live with this all day every day, so why not?!
