Hey Y'all,
I enjoyed looking at the wikis, especially the "book lovers wiki." This is the type of thing that I can see as a library wiki for us. Patrons recommending books to other patrons. A wiki like that may even encourage patrons to pick up a book instead of a dvd...or at least pick up a book with their dvds. There could even be a separate one for kids to review j books. And why not a third for teens? Lots of people only read when something is recommended to them. They don't browse. This is another way to get that recommendation. Another application would be for the various committees to each have their own wiki, especially if members of that committee are scattered around different branches.
