About the Book
This festschrift volume is dedicated to Dr. Velaga Venkatappaiah in recognition of his outstanding contributions to Library and Information Science, particularly in the fields of Public Libraries and Library Legislation. Centered on the theme of Knowledge Management (KM), the book explores one of the most significant and evolving concepts in contemporary information science.
The volume emphasizes that Knowledge Management is fundamentally concerned with people, their experiences, expertise, organizational culture, and the effective sharing and utilization of knowledge for societal benefit. While modern KM practices are increasingly supported by technology, the book demonstrates that the underlying principles of knowledge creation, capture, organization, sharing, and utilization have long been associated with library and information services.
Containing 42 scholarly papers organized into nine thematic sections, the book examines various dimensions of Knowledge Management and its application in public, academic, and special libraries. It also discusses the relationship of KM with organizational development initiatives such as Total Quality Management (TQM), organizational learning, information services, and sustainable societal development.
This collection offers valuable insights from leading scholars and professionals, making it an important reference source for librarians, researchers, educators, information professionals, policymakers, and students of Library and Information Science.
