Princeton Public Library Wiki.Viewed 20 July, 2011.
http://booklovers.pbworks.com/w/page/14034179/Princeton-Public-Library

Princeton Public Library has made this wiki for the use of it's members. Members are able to review books (with prizes given out) and read reviews. Reviews are conveniently organised in genre headings. Also the wiki has links to the Princeton Public Library Catalogue. Princeton Library web site is also worth a look. You can now (as a member) place reviews on the catalogue and pay fines online. The University could learn from this.

    I am keen to read the book in the four star Feature Review on this wiki - Flushed: How the Plumber Saved Civilization by W Hodding, it sounds very entertaining.

    Good to see they are linking it to the on line catalogue

    I like the idea of this wiki even though it's no longer active, it is a good example of how wikis can be used in libraries

    the LINC could learn from this too - great idea to get users to interact with the library
