The field of knowledge
management focuses on how organizations can most effectively store, manage, retrieve, and
enlarge their intellectual properties. The repository view of knowledge management
emphasizes the gathering, providing, and filtering of explicit knowledge. The information
in a repository has the advantage of being easily transferable and reusable. But it is not
easy to use decontextualized information, and users often need access to human experts.
This book describes a more
recent approach to knowledge management, which the authors call "expertise
sharing." Expertise sharing emphasizes the human aspects - cognitive, social,
cultural, and organizational - of knowledge management, in addition to information storage
and retrieval. Rather than focusing on the management level of an organization, expertise
sharing focuses on the self-organized activities of the organization's members. The book
addresses the concerns of both researchers and practitioners, describing current
literature and research as well as offering information on implementing systems. It
consists of three parts: an introduction to knowledge sharing in large organizations;
empirical studies of expertise sharing in different types of settings; and detailed
descriptions of computer systems that can route queries, assemble people and work, and
augment naturally occurring social networks within organizations.
