Thing 17 - LPLS wiki

Well, I suppose that I could mention here that I set up the wiki, including the front page, the sandbox page, and the Checking In Materials entry (as an example) and call it a day. But I'll go an extra mile and throw up a couple of additional entries: the opening procedures and closing procedures for MGL Library.

One thing I like so much about this wiki, a feature that I think will make it very useful, is that it's searchable. Have a question, type in a term, find pages that are related. Awesome! And pbwiki is a very easy site to use -- much easier than some other wiki sites I've visited and explored.

If it isn't obvious yet, I am really excited about this project. This week's activities are the ones I have been most looking forward to. I've been wanting to create a staff wiki for some time now, and this Learning 2.0 program was a great excuse to finally get it going. I'm glad to see that some of you fellow L2.0 folks are into this idea too -- now we just have to convert the rest of the staff!
