Wikis

Our library is already using Wikis. This is what we have so far.

Staff Wikis:

Reference, Research and Instructions (by invitation/ in progress)
Public Services (Public)
Circulation Students (Public)
Software Support (Public)

The Reference wiki is a great way to share information. It is also being used as a training tool for new reference Librarians.

Social Bookmarking - Delicious

I think Delicious would be a good place to keep bookmarks for information that I would use when I am working at the reference desk. I have Libquides for my subject area, but there are sites that I use that are not in Libguides. I don't have time to set up a Delicious account now, but I plan to in the future.

Social Networking

I created a Facebook account a few weeks ago. Some long-lost relatives and high school classmates were asking to be my friend so I decided to go for it. I was surprised at how quickly others were adding me. It has been great catching up with everyone.

I think it would be great for a library to have a facebook page. There could be a list of events, news, etc., and updates on what is going on at the library and people could make comments.

Office 2.0 - Google Docs

The possibilities of Google Docs is endless. I can see many work and personal uses. I did a short slideshow of my Cruise. Putting the pictures in was very easy using the drag method. I will be doing more exploring and experimenting with Google Docs.
