#15, Library Wiki:

Libraries are the place for wikis.  I was just spending time on the job seekers page of the best practices wiki, and the information was really sharp and easily accessable.  These volunteers are not only creating quality information, they are organizing and refining it.

Where do I think these have the most application?

Routine, specific avenues of query are a great place for wikis.   How to get things done, because of the same troubles we all encounter, can be assisted with wikis.  This is because anyone can throw their two sense in, so all types of problems and concerns can be addressed. Perhaps they can be of assistance in times when you are left bereft after continued Google searches.  Internal use shouldn't be forgotton, as wikis, as mentioned in my 505 class, are a great way to reduce loss of information when individuals retire or leave their posts.
