Wikis Wikis everywhere

Our Library has there own wiki set up on wetpaint. It has been very useful for our Library as we have two different branches, it makes it easier to share comments and thoughts on upcoming events. We also keep our procedures on the wiki so it's easy to access these if anyone requires them. We do our stationary orders as well via the wiki, being two different branches it is hard to keep in contact with things like this, so If the Gatton branch is running low on some stationary supplies they just jump on the wiki and add it to the list for the next order. It's very useful for our Library and I think all larger Libraries would find wikis useful for their Library. It was another way of getting to know fellow work colleagues as every worker has there own profile and you can learn a little bit more about everyone on the wiki as well, this helped when the council amalgamations happened as the two Libraries joined and we could connect with one another via the wiki.
