Week six case studies

Bull Run Library:

I really liked this library's use of a wiki both in terms of style and in terms of how and why they were using a wiki. It was very up to date and clean I think this would be a very good model for most libraries.

Butler WikiRef Home Page: Wow I was impressed by how extensive their list of reviewed materials was. This was another valuable use of a Wiki, valuable in that it has been collaborated on by a number of people who have knowledge of the resources and some authority to be discussing them. The strength of a wiki rests on how it is being used and by who. I think in this case it is a well used and valuable resource.

Ohio University Libraries Biz Wiki:

I really liked the FAQ on this site, another use of wikis I would like to see more often.

Princeton Public Library - BookLoversWiki I really liked this wiki in terms of organization, content and style. It's a site I might actually go back to when trying to find a new book to take on. Although the Da Vinci Code getting such positive reviews made me a little suspicious about the validity of the site...haha...but seriously

SJCPLSubjectGuides This was actually the area I suggested my library implement a wiki. There had been talk of doing this but it was being held back due to a few issues surrounding publishing the information and not knowing how to incorporate this information effectively. It seemed like such a shame when we had the subject guides available in the library and they weren't being disseminated.

USC Aiken Gregg-Graniteville Library: simple but effective library page !

Wyoming Authors Wiki: Interesting albeit specialized Wiki, if I was an author in Wyoming this would be like finding buried treasure.
