Views and Updates from UMD iSchool students working in digital curation!
One thought on “WikiArticles and WikiArchives: Second post”
Julie,
I appreciated your anecdote about the conversation you had with the director. In addition to representing the difference between theory and practice it might also represent the different generations of knowledge and training. I feel like that Yakel article is a baseline reference. As newer generations of MLIS students enter the professional field, how we weave this new/different knowledge into institutional histories or practice is a consideration for the overall updating and strengthening of the knowledge base.
