The wiki is an online tool where anyone can search and access information quickly. Because its contents can be edited by users, it is a good way to gather facts from a large number of people. It can also be a web-based notebook to organize your thoughts. It is easy to use as no knowledge of HTML or other marking language is needed to develop a website.
Wikis are also spaces for quick and easy collaborative editing of documents or posting of agendas for discussion before a meeting. In communities with no newspapers or newsletters, a wiki can become a resource that can position the library as an online hub of their local community. I think that a library wiki in our community would be a valuable resource for all residents especially newcomers trying to get acquainted with the community.
I logged into the iHCPL wiki and added my blog to the list and then commented on a favorite vacation spot.
