No. 16 Wiki
The Book Lovers Wiki and the ALA 2006 New Orleans Wiki provided information that people would find interesting and useful. A wiki is an easy-to-edit website that can be built quickly and changed by members of the website. An interesting comment is the one that points out that a wiki's advantage, being able to be added to or changed by any of its users is also its downfall. Some information can be sujective or influenced by opinion. If libraries were to do this, I think people should be able to send their comments in to the library, but the library would need to be the editor (as the one library sytem did.) I can see an advantage to a library for posting community information. If coaches, school systems, community agencies, etc. would post their events, it probably would be popular (if people knew about it.)
