The exploration of Wikkis is very interesting. They have so much potential for the sharing of ideas and instruction. I looked at quite a few and particularly enjoyed Library Success : A Best Practices Wikki because there was so much practical advice available from librarians who had direct experience to share. I thought it was brilliant.
Here at the State Library we could use it as a collaborative tool to also share ideas and information. Having our processes, our corporate knowledge and our new thinking in a place where anyone can contribute at any time would be very useful. Of course, there would need to be a moderator (s) - which would be a big job.
Clients could also give feedback on what they discover on our website, add information they have to share (eg correct names of authors) and share their research together. We all know how the clients in family history love to share their knowledge - well this is one more way they could do so.
