We have determined that our library could really enhance newsroom communication by creating an in-house wiki. Since no one has experience with this, my boss has given me the blessing to go ahead. I too, have no experience with this, but am going to move forward blissfully ignorant of what I do not know.

But where to begin?

I am currently on the waiting list for the public library’s copy of Wiki: Web Collaboration, by Anja Ebersbach, Markus Glaser, Richard Heigl, G. Dueck (Foreword), Andrea Adelung (Translator), which seems to be one of the few authoritative texts currently available.

Do any of you have experience with building a wiki? Any suggestions? Any resources you found particularly helpful?

This is only the beginning.
