Perspectives Of Knowledge Management Systems Implementation, De-Graft Johnson Dei
Library Philosophy and Practice (e-journal)
The implementation of systems to manage the knowledge of organizations requires robust technical and non-technical support in other to be successful. Knowledge management systems integrate people, processes, and technology. These systems result in changes in the operations and processes in organizations. The study assessed knowledge management systems from the two main perspectives (technical and non-technical) by emphasizing the technologies that drive the creation, processing, sharing, and storage of knowledge. From the nontechnological perspective, the study focussed on the interaction of people, process and that promote KM. This paved the way for the discussion of the various perspectives or procedures for …

The Tacit Knowledge Dilemma In Open Science, C. Sean Burns
The Tacit Knowledge Dilemma In Open Science, C. Sean Burns
Information Science Presentations
A talk about the role that knowledge management (and sub areas) might play in open science. The open science movement has the goal of making transparent as much of the scientific process as is possible. This entails making publicly available (open source, access, etc.) the parts of the scientific workflow, such as the data, the software code, the manuscripts, that are used or generated in the process of doing research. However, Michael Polanyi's theory of tacit knowledge raises a dilemma that knowledge management researchers might be able to address. Specifically, if we accept the theory of tacit knowledge, the idea …

Library Philosophy and Practice (e-journal)
The use knowledge management technology has been a survival factor for university-based libraries in overcoming challenges faced by libraries in the contemporary dynamic and competitive environment. However, the use of such technologies has been inadequate, ineffective, and fragmented in most university-based libraries within Zimbabwe. Considering this problem, this study assessed the use of knowledge management technologies within an Open and Distance Electronic Learning (ODeL) university-based library. The study was guided by the Technological Acceptance Model (TAM), formulated by Fred Davis in 1986. An embedded design was used, entailing quantitative data sets facilitating a secondary and supportive role in a predominantly …
