Wikis are a neat way to share information, I visit the YALSA wiki for information all the time. Wikipedia.com is also one of my favorite places to go and look up certain information, usually it is accurate but I must always keep in mind that there could be false information. I use it for more trivia based questions I may have as opposed to any scholarly type needs.
I was having fun exploring the Library Success Wiki that the lesson linked to, it has lots of valuable ideas to help me run the library better and see what others have already done and gauge the success. Up until about 3 months ago I never really realized how useful wikis can be and I certainly didn't know how many are out there.
My thoughts are that wikis are like having an easily maintainable and changeable website, that others can contribute to the content. This makes the use of them more dynamic.
Currently I can not see implementing one for library use, but to go to others and see what information they have to offer will be a great asset.

About Me
- Tattooed_Librarian
- I am the Library Director of a library situated in a small South Dakota town. Coming into this position I had no idea the amount of challenges I would be faced with, just running a library. Much to my surprise I fell in love with the job and the town I serve.
