L&P@CML: Wikis. Our Branch Wiki Rocks!

Our Branch Wiki, Shamrock, is a valuable tool for us. We use it for many purposes: we post policies and procedures, especially for using anything electronic at CML, and it makes a good one stop place to check on how we are supposed to be doing things, combining content from other sources with our particular take or interpretation.. We post schedules, so that staff can log in, even remotely, and see when they are supposed to be working or how some day might look for asking for PTO. Perhaps most importantly, we use it for reader's advisory. The whole branch can (and does) post reviews of their reading; we are developing a base of reviews that staff find helpful when making suggestions to our customers. W eall look forward to the day when CML has a larger scale Wiki, but our branch Wiki is a good start for learning and for providing content that we can use.
