The purpose of this study was to investigate graduate student candidates' development of library values through the use of digital tools to create and disseminate advocacy stories. While discussing, creating, sharing, revising, and reflecting on digital advocacy stories, candidates gave voice to values based on ALA and other competences. They also increased their expertise in communicating those values to library stakeholders via electronic and Web 2.0 tools. The researchers conducted a content analysis of several assignment data sources, including candidates' online discussions, advocacy stories, and digital reflection scripts. The findings suggest this pedagogical process strengthened candidates' library-related values as well as shored up their ability to advocate for those values and use social networking and digital tools to do so.
