I didn't know what a wiki was until I join the Leadership Planning Council when I first started working at HCPL. I'd always thought of wiki was short form for Wikipedia. But the idea of having a wiki that can be for a specific group is very useful. I really liked the iHCPL Wiki and reading the various Favorites lists and adding to a few of my own to the wiki. It’s was fine that each person had the control to edit the wiki, but sometimes that can be problems too, if lots of people are editing some documents. While searching via Google, I came across the Princeton Public Library's Book Lovers Wiki, where people can review books and it was well designed. I also liked the layout of Nancy Pearl's Book Lust Wiki.
