Welcome! This is a website that everyone can build together. It's easy!

Welcome to the University of Michigan School of Information's wiki! This wiki started because some students decided it was time to try some ways to share information besides si.all emails and hallway conversations. No, the wiki can't tell us everything about SI. Yes, it might be able to help with some community information problems. So, let's throw some content at the wiki and see what sticks.

Calling all contributors! The SI wiki is only as strong as its posters, so please, post freely! The wiki has no owner, no "boss," so don't feel like you need permission to post/edit/etc. If you think of something missing, make a new page about it or let us (people who read the wiki) know, and hopefully someone will add it.

If you're wondering what an SI wiki might accomplish, check out Why SI Wiki.

Navigating the SI Wiki


Sitemap
The sitemap is a great place to start. It shows the hierarchy of the site and lists every page.

Old Content
KNOWSI started by porting existing content from the old SI TWiki. That wiki lives here. The list below is a partial list from the front page of that wiki.
