Thing 16 - Wikis

I checked out some of the sites on wikis and learned some ways that libraries were using them. I looked at the Merlin link also. I know the format is different, but wikis seem to me to be the same as a blog. I liked the idea of using them to promote events - in a community or a library, for example. I thought a good use of a wiki in a school library would be to have kids review books they have read and maybe rate them. Of course, the problem with wikis is they can be edited.
