Week 7 # 16

I like wikis because they are a collaborative, community effort. I like Wikipedia because it has alot of information and good links. However, I have been alarmed by news stories about erroneous information and bogus credential claims by Wikipedia authors.

I logged onto the HCPL wiki and added some favorites. Also, I looked around at some of the links to other wikis. I really like the St. Joseph County Public Library's Subject Guides wiki. This is awesome. It is very informative, helpful, and user friendly. It is helpful to the patrons. I think this would work well for a branch within HCPL. A branch wiki could be linked to from the branch page.
