To understandthis factor in relation to Qatar Digital Library (QDL), this paper will draw a comparison of tweeterfeeds of QDL, British Library Labs (BL Labs) as well as Europeana Digital Library. In doing so, thepaper will try to establish the reasons behind low engagement rate in the QDL tweets. So, thispaper will develop steps that QDL can take so that it can increase its current number of Twitterfollowers and increase the engagement rate of its users. The things that QDL is failing to addresswill be identified by comparing the best Twitter practices from BL Labs, and Europeana digitallibrary to that of QDL. After identifying, a recommended practices for the QDL will be provided.The practices will mainly be meant to help QDL have better Twitter engagement rate.</jats:p></jats:abstract><publication_date media_type="online"><month>04</month><day>18</day><year>2020</year></publication_date><acceptance_date media_type="online"><month>04</month><day>18</day><year>2020</year></acceptance_date><publisher_item><item_number item_number_type="article_number">6302</item_number></publisher_item><program xmlns="http://www.crossref.org/AccessIndicators.xsd" name="AccessIndicators"><free_to_read start_date="2020-04-18"/><license_ref applies_to="am" start_date="2020-04-18">https://about.hal.science/hal-authorisation-v1</license_ref><license_ref applies_to="vor" start_date="2020-04-18">https://about.hal.science/hal-authorisation-v1</license_ref><license_ref applies_to="tdm" start_date="2020-04-18">https://about.hal.science/hal-authorisation-v1</license_ref></program><program xmlns="http://www.crossref.org/relations.xsd"><related_item><intra_work_relation identifier-type="uri" relationship-type="isSameAs">https://hal.science/hal-02544254v1</intra_work_relation></related_item></program><doi_data><doi>10.4000/proceedings.elpub.2020.6</doi><resource>http://elpub.episciences.org/6302</resource><collection property="crawler-based"><item crawler="iParadigms"><resource>https://hal.science/hal-02544254v1/document</resource></item></collection><collection property="text-mining"><item><resource mime_type="application/pdf">https://hal.science/hal-02544254v1/document</resource></item></collection></doi_data></journal_article></journal></body></doi_batch>
