Assigned Reading 12 Using A Wiki

this article was interesting because it clarified some of the points of a wiki for me.  Instructional wikis are used in libraries for instructional purposes.  They can created better information sharing, facilitate collaboration and divide workloads.
Wikis are used to allow members to edit text docs and attach files.
2 uses are for sharing knowledge--a cooperation in the creation of resources.
Also used to centralize resource collaboration  and streamline and lessen paperwork and workflow.
Wikipedia is the most famous example of a Wiki.
