Thing 16: Wiki

I like the idea that everyone with and inclination can contribute to an information site. Because of this open access if a library chooses to use a wiki for distributing information they have to be diligent about checking for spam, language, grudges...etc.. That being said, I think it would be great to have a site where the public can list things such as poems, events, gardening tips, etc like the Bull Run Library system.

It would be great for handouts, tutorials and PowerPoint presentations that the library could offer in connection with classes.
