"Foundations of the Information and Knowledge Professions covers topics deemed essential for students at the graduate and undergraduate level who are seeking to join the profession. The authors cover key developments from the Library of Alexandria through contemporary libraries and digital technological platforms. The advent of the Internet and the Web removed traditional geographical boundaries and allowed individuals access to information created in different languages, different cultures and different political views. The digital transformation of business and commerce brought about fundamental societal changes and revolutionized how people access, use, manipulate, and interact with information. The move to the knowledge economy presented opportunities but also created challenges that information and knowledge professionals must be equipped to handle. The authors also discuss issues related to privacy, security, and intellectual property, as well as social issues, including diversity, equity, and inclusion, codes of ethics, and codes of conduct"--

'Knowledge Management Foundations' is just what it claims, the first attempt to provide a secure intellectual footing for the myriad of practices called "knowledge management." A breath of fresh air from the usual KM gurus, Fuller openly admits that the advent of KM is a mixed blessing that often amounts to the conduct of traditional management by subtler means. However, Fuller's deep understanding of both the history of management theory and knowledge production more generally enables him to separate the wheat from the chaff of the KM literature. This ground-breaking book will prove of interest to both academics and practitioners of knowledge management. It highlights the ways in which KM has challenged the values associated with knowledge that academics have taken for granted for centuries. At the same time, Fuller resists the conclusion of many KM gurus, that the value of knowledge lies in whatever the market will bear in the short term. He pays special attention to how information technology has not only facilitated knowledge work but also has radically altered its nature. There are chapters devoted to the revolution in intellectual property and an evaluation of peer review as a quality control mechanism. The book culminates in a positive re-evaluation of universities as knowledge producing institutions from which the corporate sector still has much to learn.

Knowledge Management for the Information professional unfolded in stages from several concerns and perceptions on the part of the authors and editors. The first concern, the first stage, was the practical requirement of introducing and teaching a course on knowledge management to students already enrolled in graduate programs of library and information science, business schools, information./records management, information technology and similar disciplines who not unnaturally believe that all of their courses were already devoted to various aspects of information and knowledge management. To thee students, an elective course on knowledge management tended to appear as would an elective course titled simply medicine might appear to a medical student in medical school. The topic is clearly relevant, but questions arise such as: What does knowledge management consist of; where does it fit in; and what will I learn that I don't already know or can't elsewhere to pursue a career in knowledge management? The first section of this book, particularly the chapters by the editors, directly addresses these issues. The next stage was the realization i assembling material for the course that while there is a large and rapidly burgeoning literature on knowledge management (see appendix B) there are two significant and overlapping gaps. The first gap is that although there is substantial literature written from the viewpoint of general, and particularly senior management, and from the viewpoint of those who need to be the central actors in the unfolding of his drama---the information professionals. The second gap was the realization that although the literature is already indeed very large, there is no one good textbook or sourcebook on which to base a knowledge management, or in the context of undergraduate business education. The next stage was the attempt to address this gap. The authors concluded that in this rapidly evolving field the attempt to write an up-to-date textbook was a task that would be heroic to say the least, and likely futile. We decided upon a multi--authored book, not a key papers in approach, as the field is changing too rapidly for that, but a collection of simultaneously written components by authors who are active and experienced in the field. This book will be useful, not only as a course book, but also as an updated background on the field of knowledge management for information professionals and managers.

Foreword by Robert Hauptman As discussions about the roles played by information in economic, political, and social arenas continue to evolve, the need for an intellectual primer on information ethics that also functions as a solid working casebook for LIS students and professionals has never been more urgent. This text, written by a stellar group of ethics scholars and contributors from around the globe, expertly fills that need. Organized into twelve chapters, making it ideal for use by instructors, this volume from editors Burgess and Knox thoroughly covers principles and concepts in information ethics, as well as the history of ethics in the information professions; examines human rights, information access, privacy, discourse, intellectual property, censorship, data and cybersecurity ethics, intercultural information ethics, and global digital citizenship and responsibility; synthesizes the philosophical underpinnings of these key subjects with abundant primary source material to provide historical context along with timely and relevant case studies; features contributions from John M. Budd, Paul T. Jaeger, Rachel Fischer, Margaret Zimmerman, Kathrine A. Henderson, Peter Darch, Michael Zimmer, and Masooda Bashir, among others; and offers a special concluding chapter by Amelia Gibson that explores emerging issues in information ethics, including discussions ranging from the ethics of social media and social movements to AI decision making. This important survey will be a key text for LIS students and an essential reference work for practitioners.
