Wikis-Thing 17

Wiki-always wondered where that word originated . . . anyway, I like them! My favorite in the small list of wikis we were instructed to check out was "BookloversWiki". It's really an online version of what we in the book loving world do everytime someone asks "What have you read that was really good?" . . . only it's online. Saw two titles in the 5 Star Review section that I will definitely check on as definite reads.
"Kindred" by Octavia Butler
"The Tender Bar" by J.R. Moehringer

I also signed up for "Library Success: A Best Practices Wiki". Collaboration among like minds is such a time saver! I will check this site often in my job as a youth services parapro. I'm always looking for great program ideas.
