wikis

Wikipedia scared me when I first heard about it and I refuesed to use it. All I can remember is teachers telling me that it was not a reliable source for information since every Tom, Dick and Harry could edit it. ISince it has gotten the green light from the information finding masters (Librarians) I have consulted it a couple times and it’s been pretty useful. I don’t like the way the page for SJCPL Subject Guides is set up. I like Book Lovers Wiki better. But again, when clicking on the Library Success: A best practices wiki the first thing you see is: “Update! Because of vandalism problems, e-mail confirmation is now required.” See, kinda scary if you need legit info.
