The story of the North Suburban
Library System (NSLS) knowledge management initiative is featured in
the April 2004 issue of Association Management, the monthly journal
of the American Society of Association Executives. The article, titled
"Writing the Book on Knowledge," is authored by Christina Stoll, NSLS
knowledge management specialist.
Stoll traces the project from
beginning work with outside knowledge management experts to the successful
launch of a number of NSLS initiatives serving staff operations and
member services. NSLS began its work with knowledge management in 2002
in response to staff suggestions for better long term organization,
retention and sharing of information and resources. Find out more about
the NSLS knowledge management initiative at http://www.nsls.info/issues/km/.
