# 18 Wikis
Wikis appear to present a myriad of powerful possibilities. Eg:
1) Collaborative subject guide, involving library patrons
2) Adding wiki functionality, through patron recommendations, within catalogues
3) Staff projects Eg. Development of library procedures
4) Collecting blogs ideas. See: http://teacherlibrarianwiki.pbworks.com/Links+to+our+blogs
I can see an immediate use in encouraging students to share their recommendations according to genre, so that we can track the type of genre our students are enjoying.
I especially like the wiki-Library Success – http://www.libsuccess.org/index.php?title=Main_Page
That was set up for ALA to encourage the library community to share their success stories. The links to online training courses could be very useful. http://www.libsuccess.org/index.php?title=Online_Training_Resources_for_Librarians
This notion of collegiate sharing could be very useful in time-strapped schools.
