16. Conclusions: The Relationship between Wikis and Special
Libraries
Special libraries can facilitate the transaction of information
within and between project groups and providing reference services
within those groups
They can disseminate information on an organization or department
wide level, and can provide a forum to allow for feedback.
In-house libraries can play a special role with the development,
moderation and archiving of a wiki within their
organization.
