wiki will be organized around four main content areas:<o:p></o:p></span></h2>

</span></span></span><!--[endif]--><b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Discussion
Themes.</span></b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> Each theme will have
a unique page in the wiki describing the theme and the questions posed
in the Discussion Guide. Expert discussion leaders will introduce two
new themes every two weeks. The full schedule is below. Wiki users will
be able to respond and comment on the questions, as well as pose new
questions and thoughts particular to that theme.

</span></span></span><!--[endif]--><b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Future
Reading (an open bibliography).</span></b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">
Wiki users will be able to post links and citations to publications and
resources on issues relevant to the future of museums and libraries.
This page will include the bibliography from the original publication
as a starting point.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

</span></span></span><!--[endif]--><b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Present
Practice (examples from the field).</span></b><span
style="font-size: 12pt;"> The examples from the field page will be a
space for users to share existing projects at their own institutions or
others, which are related to the discussion themes. They will be
encouraged to include links to the project or institution website and
contribute a brief description of the project.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

</span></span></span><!--[endif]--><b><span style="font-size: 12pt;">In
the Classroom.</span></b><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> Finally, a
unique page will exist for educators and students to share how the
wiki, the Discussion guide and other resources on the future of museums
and libraries are or can be used in the classroom. Users can share
lesson plans, student reports and projects, and resources for emerging
library and museum professionals.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
