BIGWIG (library organization)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
BIGWIG is an interest group for the Library Information and Technology Association, a division of the American Library Association.
BIGWIG was founded in 2006 as an Interest Group for the Library Information Technology Association (LITA), a division of the American Library Association. The name was an acronym for "Blog, Interactive Groupware, and Wiki Interest Group" - as these were some of the first Web 2.0 technologies to attain popular usage within libraries. Since that time, the group has broadened its scope to include the exploration of other Web 2.0 software and techniques.
