I have used Wikipedia many times before, so I was familiar with wikis when I started this activity. It's because of the fact that anyone can edit the information in a wiki that the information in such sites is often called into question. Nonetheless, wiki have become a ubiquitous tool in the online community as a means of sharing information.
Libraries especially have embraced the conpcet of wikis, whether by creating one for their own library, using them to contribute useful information about librarianship, or creating a book review wiki for users. Wikis indeed have many potential uses, provided the information they hold comes from the right people.
