Wikis feel more like a loose newsletter with various levels of participation based upon invites:open, closed, invited, etc. Less structed than Blogs. Wikis can be used for committees, or group projects as a way to share information - without the hierarchy. Not necessarily listed in chronological order. Feels messy!
Blogs appear to be communication from one individual to another,while Wikis can communicate with groups of people and include more links to various new kinds of media? On-line videos, etc.
Blogs are controlled by the author, as far as editing and responding. Blogs are easier to post.
Blogs can be used to share information in a more controlled setting than by using a Wiki.Could write a library blog for your patrons with the library holding the authorship. However, if want to use a Wiki, more participation is available which would include but not belimited to the library community.
