Collaborating with Wiki

Internet Librarian Interational Conference, London, October 10, 2005

Rachel Bridgewater, Washington State University Vancouver
Anne-Marie Deitering, Oregon State University

Wikis, web pages that anyone can edit, offer exciting new possibilities for collaboration. Wikis allow a community of users to build and update a site that actively addresses their changing needs and expectations. Find out how these two librarians developed a wiki for instruction librarians to cooperatively share their ideas and instructional materials. Learn about implementation details, successes, setbacks and the challenges they faced in developing this project and hear tips about how to use a wiki for a local or geographically remote work group.
