Note that the FAQ section "for librarians"
(http://open-ils.org/faq.php#librarians) goes into more depth on
Evergreen features than the wiki page does.

The NISO guide is an interesting resource - thanks for pointing that out, Ben.

I've fixed the relevant link. I think "earning wiki access" is pretty
much documented here:
http://open-ils.org/documentation/contributing.html#Documentation%20Contribution
- which I think works out to a process roughly like: contribute
suggested fixes / additions to the docs via mailing list or IRC for a
while until it's clear you've got a good handle on the project. So
you're on the road.
