Abstract
GIS can be Delicious for Everyone
Track: Using GIS in Libraries and Museums
Author
We’ve all heard it before: one of the hardest parts of using GIS can be finding good and relevant GIS data. Three GIS librarians at different universities across the United States invite you to hear the story of their collaboration for a GIS resources guide using Delicious.com, a social booking website. We’ll tell you about our collaborative process, introduce the resource we've created, describe what makes it a very good tool as it stands, and conclude with what we would like to do to make our guide an exemplary resource for GIS librarians everywhere.
