Wikis in the Library

Wikipedia, while a good place to find quick and easy information, is not the best source of academic research. Anyone can add anything at anytime. But this very freedom allows groups to work together to achieve a goal even when they are not all in the same place, country or even time zone. When working on my Librarianship through CSU, I made great use of a wiki while completing a group assignment. Each team member was able to contribute and interact despite distance and time constraints. It may be that the Library needs to invest in similar practices since we now cater to an everwidening workforce from the City campus, to Callaghan, Ourimbah to Sydney.
