While wikis offer a number of benefits for supporting knowledge creation in collaborative groups, the literature suggests a strong need to establish conventions to enable long-term success. Based on an extensive literature review, the results of a research project into blog and wiki use in Australian libraries, and evaluations of the wiki installation of the RUBRIC Project sponsored by the Australian Commonwealth Department of Education, Science, and Training, the bulletin also examines how wiki technology can enable the online collaborative process.</p><p><em>Citation for this work</em>: Watson, Kate, and Chelsea Harper. &quot;Supporting Knowledge Creation: Using Wikis for Group Collaboration&quot; (Research Bulletin, Issue 3).
