Academic libraries are being forced to adopt a more advanced version of the library model, where library systems integrate with users to disseminate knowledge for educational purposes and create a dynamic learning community, because of the growing potential of social media applications to effectively revolutionize library participation.

In conclusion, the developed framework will propose the best library model, the best theory of social media engagement that merges with the best framework for the learning community.
