  • Library Trends 72 (1) August 2023: Indigenous Librarianship [Restricted Access]
    Scholarship
    Description
    This special issue of Library Trends presents a glimpse into the current state of Indigenous librarianship. In the composition of this issue the editors followed an unconventional approach of soliciting articles. Instead of issuing a traditional call for papers, they reached out to individuals and institutions that were already stewarding Indigenous collections in a culturally respectful manner. This method of sourcing allowed the editors to provide the readers with insights into the current state of the field and to invite emerging scholars to share their perspectives. At the same time, it limited the range of experiences that the editors were able to explore. Additionally, availability for authoring was limited in part because publishing is not often incentivized for librarians. Thus, the issue serves as a collection of field reports featuring certain major trends occurring in Indigenous librarianship in North America.
  • Library Trends 72 (2) November 2023: International Perspectives on Knowledge Management Education [Restricted Access]
    Scholarship
    Description
    This special issue includes eleven articles from around the world, representing nine regions or countries, across six continents in which authors have shared their experiences with knowledge management (KM) education in their geographic area. There are several common themes throughout the world regarding KM education. First, universities throughout the world have attempted or are attempting to develop KM as a unique discipline with explicit titles and content. KM education in some countries (e.g., the United States and Canada) appears to be in decline as represented by the decline in courses or programs. While this is anecdotal, it is likely to be more the result of name/title changes rather than substantial differences in content. As technology has changed over the past twenty-five years or so, the label of KM has been under some debate as to whether it should be replaced with something more reflective of this change. For example, data analytics is joined with KM in the introductory article by Hawamdeh and Madali. In other countries (e.g., Brazil), however, KM education is on the rise. Regardless of the name, the number of jobs in KM and the projected market for KM suggest that work in this field is growing and in increasing demand.
