• Autonomous 501(c)(3) organizations, each with its own set of bylaws
• Division membership optional– approximately 42% of ACS members choose to belong to one or more divisions (2011 data)
![Page 8: American Chemical Society 1 Table of Contents Introduction: Slides 2-5 ACS Committees: Slide 6 General Information: Slides 7-8 Committee on Divisional](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ec55503460f94bd0198/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Why do Divisions exist?
• Provide division members and others with access to the information and the people they need to succeed professionally.
– I want access to my discipline’s technical/professional information
– I want to connect and communicate with like-minded chemists.
• Provide recognition through awards, grants/scholarships, fellowships, and other means.

Social Media’s Role in Serving Division Members
ACS Leadership Institute ● Dallas, TexasJanuary 24, 2014
Chris McCarthy, Social Media Manager, ACS Member Communities
![Page 57: American Chemical Society 1 Table of Contents Introduction: Slides 2-5 ACS Committees: Slide 6 General Information: Slides 7-8 Committee on Divisional](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ec55503460f94bd0198/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
What Do We Mean by Social Media?
• User-generated content (status updates, photos, videos)
• Interactive (like, share, comment)
• Relationships (friends, colleagues, communities, organizations, causes)
• Increasingly mobile (check-in, location-based)
• Immediate (real-time interactions, live-blogging/live-tweeting)
American Chemical Society 57
![Page 58: American Chemical Society 1 Table of Contents Introduction: Slides 2-5 ACS Committees: Slide 6 General Information: Slides 7-8 Committee on Divisional](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ec55503460f94bd0198/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
Goal for Social Tools and ACS
Social tools can extend the existing activities of ACS and the chemical community to a virtual space, leveraging benefits
of efficiency and inclusiveness, especially in terms of time and location.
These tools are another way to develop relationships, have dialogue,
and foster loyalty among ACS members.

![Page 59: American Chemical Society 1 Table of Contents Introduction: Slides 2-5 ACS Committees: Slide 6 General Information: Slides 7-8 Committee on Divisional](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ec55503460f94bd0198/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)
Social Media & Technical Divisions
ACS technical divisions provide info about a specific field of chemistry and offer members a forum for networking, collaboration, and recognition within that specialty.
Social media can enhance existing offerings
– promote national meeting programming, awards, etc.
and create new avenues for interactions
– groups to share info about your discipline, current research, the profession
– ways to reach international members or those who don’t regularly attend meetings
– lower barrier for participation

![Page 60: American Chemical Society 1 Table of Contents Introduction: Slides 2-5 ACS Committees: Slide 6 General Information: Slides 7-8 Committee on Divisional](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ec55503460f94bd0198/html5/thumbnails/60.jpg)
Social Tools Divisions are Using
– More than 1 Billion registered users; 2nd highest page rank on the web.
– Social utility that connects people, to keep up with friends, upload photos, share links and videos.
– 500 Million registered users; 12th highest page rank on the web.
– Social networking and microblogging service using instant messaging, SMS or a web interface. (Tweets are 140 characters or less.)
– 200 Million registered users; 14th highest page rank on the web.
– A networking tool to find connections to recommended job candidates, industry experts, and business partners.
• ACS Network
– More than 260,000 registered users.
– Audience is the chemical community. Great way to conduct division business.

Promoting Technical Division Events
American Chemical Society 62
• Social media is a great way to inform people about events, such as national meetings.
• You can tweet about events and even have conversations with attendees in real time.
![Page 63: American Chemical Society 1 Table of Contents Introduction: Slides 2-5 ACS Committees: Slide 6 General Information: Slides 7-8 Committee on Divisional](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ec55503460f94bd0198/html5/thumbnails/63.jpg)

Communicating with Members
• If you have an existing email newsletter, you can tweet about it, post a link in Facebook or LinkedIn, or keep an archive of it on an ACS Network group.
• You can also use these tools to drivemembers to new content on yourwebsites.

What Makes a Good Post?
• Keep it short—messages under 100 characters are far more likely to be liked, commented on, and shared.
• Timing matters—depending on your audience, posts on weekdays may be more popular than on nights or weekends. Some social tools also help automate timing.
• Questions, especially short answer ones, get more traction.
– The 2014 Chemists Celebrate Earth Day theme is Water. How can chemistry aid a growing population with access to safe drinking water?
• Ask for tips—social media users, like anyone, love to share personal experiences and insights.

Use Social Tools Collaboratively
• Social media work best by using multiple channels to reach out to your audience.
• You could have a post on an ACS Network or other blog that you share via a link on Facebook, Twitter, or LinkedIn.
• Different content makes more sense for different tools. Think about your audience and your desired results.
• Leverage other relevant organizations or individuals by mentioning them—they may share your content with their audience (going viral).

Listen First
• Find out where your members are.
• Hear what they’re talking about.
• See what you can add to the conversation.
• Consider setting up a Google Alert about yourdivision or specialty. It can point you to new spaces online where members and potentialmembers are talking.

If You Build a Garden, You Need To Tend To It
• Social media presences that aren’t active for a couple of weeks seem dormant, more than a few months seem dead.
• Answer questions. Just as in real life, ignoring people online is rude.
• Answer most questions publically—for every person who asks there could be a dozen or more who have the same question but don’t bother posting it.
American Chemical Society 70
![Page 71: American Chemical Society 1 Table of Contents Introduction: Slides 2-5 ACS Committees: Slide 6 General Information: Slides 7-8 Committee on Divisional](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ec55503460f94bd0198/html5/thumbnails/71.jpg)
Avoid Controversy and Keep Things Civil
• If you set up a social media presence for your technical division, remember you are communicating on behalf of ACS.
– Keep your message positive.
– Avoid political statements, especially partisan attacks or endorsements.
– Some topics may be appropriate for you to comment on as an individual chemist but not as “official spokespersons for ACS.” (Research findings, accidents, etc.)
• Moderation may be necessary with a group or in a comment section
– Consider a policy to keep your group free from personal attacks, offensive language or imagery, or inappropriate commercial content.

Final Thoughts
• Social media doesn’t replace other forms of communication with your members.
• If you already have a presence on the ACS Network, Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, or any other platform, make sure staff know about it so we can help promote it.
• Not sure where to start? ACS staff can help you brainstorm how to use social media tools to enhance your technical division's programming, networking and information sharing, or other activities.
