The
Great Lakes Wiki
www.greatlakeswiki.org
![GLIN Site of the Month]() The Great Lakes Wiki is devoted
to the citizens of the Great Lakes and their stories about our great
natural resources. The web site uses special software that enables
anyone to add articles and content, or edit the content of others.
Established as a response to a lack of environmental coverage of
Great Lakes stories by the region's newspapers, the wiki broadens
the possibilities of sharing information and building a Great Lakes
community.
