Wikis

Wikis are interesting technology. Social networking seems to be the "in thing" with this generation of tech users. A good way to get our teens insterested in our books and lovely resources is to provide a space for them to chat about it to their friends. They want to be heard and not told...the Booklovers wiki is a great way to promote new books. The Montana History wiki is a great way to put your localhistory information.
Setting up of book chats, may be a topical wiki site - say HSC times when students or parents can exchange information on a shared space might be a great way to facilitate community engagement.
