My #HuntLibrary iPad Mini contest ends February 22
February 12, 2013
The My #HuntLibrary photo contest has been a huge success! The NC State community has contributed over 1200 Instagram images to the project , simply by adding the hashtag #HuntLibrary to their Instagram photos. This crowdsourced photo project has really captured the spirit of the Hunt Library and has been a great way to introduce it to the world. While the My #HuntLibrary website will live on, the contest will end at 11:59PM February 22, 2013.
The winner will be selected by a jury of librarians from among the most popular photographs in My #HuntLibrary . The popularity score is determined by a combination of battle wins and "likes" on the photograph. Please note - likes on Instagram do not count towards the popularity score! "Likes" have to be submitted on the My #HuntLibrary app. Also, only public images taken with Instagram are eligible to win the iPad Mini . We currently don't have the ability to include pictures from other social media sites or private photos on Instagram.
The winner will be awarded and recognized at an upcoming NCSU Libraries Student Advisory Board meeting.
The iPad Mini isn't the only reason to participate! NCSU Libraries will preserve the best #HuntLibrary photos forever in the University's official digital archives so they become a permanent part of NC State history. If your photo is selected, watch for a comment from us on your #HuntLibrary photo!
