Something Wiki This Way Comes
Wikis are catching on in the library world. What’s a Wiki? "The simplest online database that could possibly work." (Quote from: "Making the Case for a Wiki.")
Here’s a few examples of how Wikis are being used:
- ALA Chicago 2005 Main Page (the unofficial wiki for the 2005 ALA Annual Conference in Chicago)
- Butler WikiRef (Butler University Libraries’ Reference Wiki)
- Canadian Library Association (CLA) Calgary 2005 Main Page
- LITS Wiki (Jean and Alexander Heard Library,Vanderbilt University)
- MyLibrary Wiki (Eric Lease Morgan)
- University of Connecticut Libraries’ Staff Wiki
- University of Minnesota Libraries Staff Web Site
