It took a minute or two to sink in. I was just sitting there, smiling and nodding my head, when the facts finally cracked through my thick skull and penetrated my brain. I went from “New Guy Helping My Web Committee Cohort Explain to the Library Director Our Idea for a Wiki on Our Website” to “Guy in Charge of the Whole Shebang” so fast my head was spinning.
Zoinks! How did that happen?
Now I don’t just have to babble about how great it would be to have a wiki like the St. Joseph County Public Library Subject Guides on our website, I also have to develop an outline of what the wiki will look like and how it will be created and maintained, write a proposal, make a schedule with deadlines, create and organize a “wiki taskforce,” and oversee the whole project.
Need I mention that I don’t remember learning about this in library school?
Does it sound like I’m nervous? Well, I am. I’m also pretty excited. And really, what’s the worst that could happen? (Cue sound of clattering dishes and breaking glass.)
