Yeah, so what wouldn't work for libraries employing the use of wikis? Seems to be so practical on so many levels as evidenced in the many examples throughout the exercise. As a collaborative exercise with the public we have peer-generated ratings for reading materials instead of just the "voice of the librarian," and also community wikis developing to share a myriad of info and links found by informed individuals. As a tool for staff purposes we have a replacement for an intranet structure where the gatekeepers write in code and need to be directed to post simple additions meant to share and facilitate a learning process. Lots of examples to ponder the benefits of utilizing multiple wikis, but let's not bore each other with the details and the obvious challenges to maintaining a strong wiki. Let's empower the willing and start creating more avenues to actually utilize the potential.
