Two additional ways libraries could use Wikis? Hmmm....
What about a Wiki we could use "internally" to share those local documents that each branch uses but does not put out for the public. As a part-time librarian moving from branch to branch, I've notice that one branch may have some useful information that another branch does not. For example, one library might have an internal list of local orgs. that take volunteers who are under 16. Another will list nearby businesses that fax. One might know where to send people for citizenship classes.
It would be very helpful to the part-time librarians and LAs to have one place we could look up a topic and see the sites specific to the branch we are working at.
A Wiki could also be used for Bibliographies or Read-Alikes. It would be simple for anyone on the Wiki to add the latest title in a series or remove a title that's no longer popular. They would be updated constantly and available for printing, if need be.
