我国信息资源管理研究历程回顾与思考

Review and Reflections on Information Resources Management Research in China

信息资源管理是人类信息基础环境变迁和信息社会发展的产物。在我国,信息资源管理研究有着独特的兴起和发展历程。从一个研究领域发展成为一门学科,信息资源管理的演变过程深深地嵌入到图书情报学理论构建、学科建设、专业教育改革和事业发展等诸多方面,对其产生了深远的影响。本文将我国信息资源管理研究历程划分为四个阶段:(1)信息资源管理在西方国家的兴起与在我国的萌发(1970—1990年);(2)我国图书情报学界对信息资源管理的先行探索(1990—2000年);(3)网络环境下信息资源管理的蓬勃发展(2000—2010年);(4)数智时代的信息资源管理(2010—2022年),并对每一阶段的代表性理论观点进行分析,探讨不同信息资源管理思想的意义和价值。在此基础上,本文提出应加强信息资源管理学科理论大厦的建设,并对其中要解决的主要问题进行分析,指出评价建设取得实质性进展的主要标准是构建出专属于信息资源管理领域的抽象规律,阐述了抽象规律应具备的特点,以期为信息资源管理未来研究提供有益的思路。参考文献53。

Information resources management(IRM)is a product of the evolution of the human information infrastructure and the development of the information society.The rise and development of information resources management has a unique historical track in China.The transformation of information resources management from a research field to a discipline has been deeply embedded in theoretical study,disciplinary construction,professional education reform,and enterprise development of library and information science(LIS).This paper divides IRM developmental process into four stages.1)The rise of information resources management in Western countries and its initial development in China(1970-1990).In the first stage,the LIS community in China actively joined the research trend related to information.The emergence of the“grand information view”created conditions for connecting LIS with information resources management.2)The pioneering exploration of information resources management in Chinese LIS community(1990-2000).In the second stage,the renaming of“scientific and technological qingbao”to“scientific and technological information”in 1992 strongly supported LIS disciplinary and industrial reform.The renaming of the department/college of LIS to information resources management opened up a new situation for academic research,professional development and education.The restructured undergraduate program of information management and information system led to the rise of a new paradigm of LIS.3)The prosperity of information resources management in the network environment(2000-2010).In the third stage,the network environment became the dominant information infrastructure,and information resources management was a hot topic at the forefront of academia.Scholars found that information resources management could reveal the essence of the discipline and adapt to the talent needs of the information society.Using information resources management as an umbrella discipline conception to integrate various secondary disciplines is a feasible solution.4)Information resources management in the data and intelligence age(2010-2022).In the fourth stage,that information resources management is the goal of disciplinary construction has become apparent.It constitutes the solid theoretical and social foundation of LIS.Research on information resources management has entered a new stage of comprehensive development.The comparison of similar concepts of information management and information resources management,as well as dealing with the paradigm conflict between“information”and“intelligence”,are hot issues.Looking forward to future information resources management development in the new era,the paper proposes to strengthen the foundation building of information resources management discipline and analyzes the main problems to be solved.It points out that the primary standard for evaluating substantive progress on the foundation is to construct abstract laws of information resources management and elaborates on the characteristics of such abstract laws.It is expected to provide useful references for the future research.53 refs.
