To prove their relevance and value, academic libraries must strive to provide the right amount of information to the right clientele properly with appropriate financial and human resources to improve organizational performance. The role of knowledge management in libraries today has become more vital along-with the development of knowledge economy. The major components of knowledge management in libraries are: 1. Human Resource Management 2. Knowledge innovation 3. Information Technology 4. Knowledge Dissemination The academic libraries should adopt new policies, strategies and implementation of knowledge management for rendering qualitative services to its users so as to increase faith in the organization. The main objective of an academic library is to serve as an institution to nurture a reading society and to provide the required information to promote reading and knowledge. Successful knowledge system involves “package knowledge” in the process of doing real work. OBJECTIVES OF KNOWLEDGE MANAGEMENT IN LIBRARIES In the knowledge economy era, the libraries will attach importance to vocational training and lifelong education of library staff to raise their knowledge level and ability of acquiring and innovating knowledge. The main objectives of implementing knowledge management in an academic library are: • An all-round improvement of library staff’s • To promote relationships in and between libraries and library users. • To promote knowledge innovation. • To strengthen knowledge internetworking and to quicken knowledge flow. • To carry out searches on development and application of information resources. TECHNIQUES AND TOOLS OF KNOWLEDGE MANAGEMENT 1. Financial Management: Information resources are the basic components of academic library. Without finance information resources can not be acquired and accessed. 2. Cost Analysis: For efficient and effective knowledge management cost analysis is the need of the hour. 3. Application of IT: Knowledge is the application of IT in an information handling activities. The induction of IT in libraries has to be addressed more as a major change in management exercise than providing technological solutions to the existing problems. 4. Standards: Standards are important for knowledge management, standardization in materials techniques and pattern of service 156
is quite important. The exchange of information is possible only if compatible standards and techniques for information and knowledge transfers are followed. 5. Information Retrieval Tools: It does not matter how much information is available in the databases unless and until it is being retrieved for use. Information retrieval offers the required knowledge through free text search and search with advanced algorithms so that all the relevant knowledge can be retrieved. 6. Meta Data: Metadata is simply data about data which helps the users to retrieve the required information easily. BARRIERS TO IMPLEMENT PROPER KNOWLEDGE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM To keep pace with the challenges the academic librarians have to increase their operational efficiency within the limited budgets allocated. The most effective tool that can help in this reference is Knowledge Management. O’Dell and Grayson have listed the following barriers in the proper implementation of knowledge management: • Ignorance-not knowing who has the right information required for the job. • Lack of time to find out and absorb the best practices recommended • Lack of a relationship between the source and recipient of knowledge • Time lag taken to implement best practices recommended across departments. BENEFITS OF IMPLEMENTING KM The benefit of implementing KM in academic library are: Benefits: • Better ROI (Return on Investment) • Improved measures of performance • A greater understanding of organizational goals • Lesson learned on organizational change • Understanding user’s requirement through constant evaluation of the services and its improvement • An opportunity to see oneself not just service oriented, but mostly value oriented THE ROLES OF KNOWLEDGE PROFESSIONALS FOR KNOWLEDGE MANAGEMENT Knowledge Management has emerged as a key concern of organizations. Earlier librarians have been regarded as part of the supportive staff of the organization, working quietly in the background, often uninvolved in any of the critical 157
