Quest 9: Wiki

Can I just say - wikis rock!

Wikis are great for things like pathfinders, when you want to include newer resources as they become available, but don't want to have to reprint new brochures if you're only making minor changes. Our Best of the Web resources and websites of the week would make a good wiki. It might also be useful for the staff intranet and calendar. Reference is already using one for programming ideas.

I have also created a college and career wiki to corral some of my favorite sites and sources under one heading. PBWiki is incredibly easy to use - if you can use Word, you can use PBWiki.

It would be nice to have our blogs and wikis connected to CCPL's website, so that patrons and staff can view them.

Quest 6, part 1 - Del.icio.us

I had played with Del.icio.us back in January, but never seemed to have the time to go back and make it useful. I imported my favorites list from the computer in the ILL area - and now I have access to all of the online verification tools I use, without having to remember web addresses. My memory is fading, either due to age or the sheer amount of information that is available.

I browsed a number of sites via PLCMC's links page, and could easily have spent the whole afternoon wandering. My list is not nearly that interesting, but here it is:
