Hi y’all— I’m here today to talk about library and information science (LIS), personal knowledge management (PKM), and YOU.
Since this whole PKM/B (base) thing has taken off there has been endless endless endless discussion on how to organize things. Systems seem to pop up all the time ranging from PARA to Johnny Decimal, to folksonomies, etc, etc. This is a really fascinating and interesting time to be around and also very exciting to see this developing. however one thing that gets lost in all of these back and forth and arguments is that there is an entire field dedicated to the representation organization cataloging and classification of knowledge, a field that has been around for hundreds of years & has the experience of thousands of people involved: library and information science.
As far as I’m able to discern, almost none of these novel PKM or PKB organization systems have benefited from the input of library and information science. There are a lot of things that the LIS field can provide to help all y’all PKM folks. I’m going to talk about that a bit…
@Emotional_Series7814 That's hell of a lot of reading, but a valuable resource nonetheless. Never thought there would be a professional that would help me organize my notes.
