Wikipedia -- the best ever
this other random "library " wiki, its good, but I feel that the more specialized the better. If there is a general one, it need massive participation to be good. For a little wiki, that say ten people use all the time, then it will be good for their specialized knowledge.
Greater participation = greater usefullness rating
IN OUR LIBRARY USEFULLness
so many areas
Internally, it could be used as a collaboration tool to post process maps and to constantly refine the processes of workflow within various departments.
It can also be used as a training tool for student workers
How about research wikis for classes
Or research wikis in general for various types of research.
Then you would want to leverage the other types of library wikis that are out there already so you aren't having to duplicate work thats already been done.
There are a lot of applications of wikis but it takes careful planning i believe to make them work right. Also significant user population buy in -- so they aren't corrupted like the wiki entries for politicians in washington.
