摘要
Research published during the last two decades has frequently discussed how Knowledge Management (KM) is important for libraries. However, we do not know the extent to which KM forms a part of Library and Information Science (LIS) research. In this study, we looked for KM articles published in top LIS journals since 2000. We analyzed publication trends, and the distribution of articles by KM-related terms used, region/country and information-setting type. We also identified the top-cited KM articles published in these LIS journals. 672 KM-related articles (only 3.84%) were found within the 17,491 articles published in these LIS journals. This low percentage shows that while it might seem like LIS people are advocating for KM in libraries and other information settings, we find that despite the synergies, KM is yet to find a broader place within other LIS concerns.
