It was very easy to post an entry into the Staff Picks section of the Reader's Advisory wiki. We have a similar wiki for WW staff. Wikis are helpful because they can be updated by anyone and at anytime. It is a more efficient way to share work.
At WW, we have "impulse checkout" books on display at the front desk. The staff use the WW Staff Wiki to post what moves and what doesn't move. While not a very scientific measurement of collection activity, it does provide some feedback about what customers might readily pick up. Plus, it gave staff a chance to practice posting to a wiki.
Wiki's can be used by groups developing booklists, training materials, etc. Multiple people can work on the same document with multiple people able to view the progress of the work.
