国内外知识组织研究内容与发展——基于《图书情报工作》与Knowledge Organization期刊论文的比较分析

The Research and Development of Knowledge Organization in China and Abroad:A Comparative Review study of Library and Information Service and Knowledge Organization

知识组织一直是图书情报学领域的重要课题,相关研究也在不断突破与发展以实现知识的有效查询与获取。本文以《图书情报工作》和Knowledge Organization(《知识组织》)2009—2016年期刊论文为研究对象,运用文献计量分析和比较分析的方法,从生产主体、知识基础、研究主题三个角度对比分析了国内外知识组织领域研究现状与进展。研究表明,计算机科学和知识管理是国内知识组织研究重要的学科基础,对应着技术导向和管理导向两种研究路径;国外则十分关注传统知识组织的内容及其在不同语种、领域和资源类型等新环境中的应用,且非常重视从社会文化与哲学等抽象层面思考知识组织的本质与基础。本文通过管窥国内外知识组织发展现状及差异,以期能够帮助国内研究者更加清晰地认识与界定知识组织的内涵与范围,更好地把握未来的研究方向。

Knowledge organization has always been an important subject in the field of Library and information science. With the advent of big data era, lots of researchers are committed to study on knowledge organization for continuous break- through and development in order to satisfy the need of knowledge query and access effectively. In order to reveal the status quo and progress of knowledge organization at home and abroad, a Chinese journal Library and Information Service and an international journal Knowledge Orgenization were respectively selected as the objects of this review study. All articles pub- lished in each journal between 2009 and 2016 were analyzed by bibliometric analysis and comparative analysis from the perspectives of knowledge producer on individual level, knowledge base and research topic. Research results showed that com- puter science and knowledge management are both important disciplinary bases of domestic knowledge organization re- search, which correspondingly give rise to technology-oriented and management-oriented research branches. While interna- tional researchers focus closely on the related topics in knowledge organization, especially on the traditional knowledge organization tools, methods and techniques as well as their applications in different environments with different languages, vari- ous types of resources or different domains. At the same time, a great deal of attention was paid to explore the nature of organized objects and discuss the philosophical and theoretical basis of knowledge organization from social culture, ethics andphilosophy. This study is aimed at helping domestic researchers to clearly understand and define the connotation and scope of knowledge organization so as to grasp the future research direction better.
