Wiki

I am relieved that I work in the library and can apply some of the suggestions at school right away. On ILLiad(Interlibrary Loan management till) list serve we received an email from Katie from University of Illinois, at Urbana-Champaign with a web site for ILL borrowing wiki (see links) That's a terrific idea: you can post all the training documents for the office, instead of keeping them in paper or in somebody's folder. This is just one of the examples how new technologies work. We were also discussing RSS feed and I do not believe our library has it?? I checked UCLA and their home page lists RSS feeds and podcats in nice and bright orange.
Since I am done with delico and Scout Portal I was able to catch up on my reading. "Content is not the King" article is really discouraging especially if you compare it with "Leonard's Laptop", which inspire you to invest in learning.
