Enhancing Access to Knowledge Management Literature —A Proposal for Domain-Based Classification Scheme and Thesaurus

摘要

Knowledge organisation systems (KOS) include a variety of tools and methods for organising information and knowledge 'things'. When we refer to KOS we generally mean classification schemes, thesauri, semantic networks, and authority control systems. Most academic disciplines are supported by professionally developed and maintained KOS. This is not the case for knowledge management. Knowledge management is insufficiently treated in existing KOS. The research is exploratory in its approach to developing KOS tools for the field. It is engaging in that at every stage of development it leverages the knowledge and input of the larger knowledge management community.
