Dear Liberation Tech Colleagues, (Putting on my "consultant to Annkissam" hat.)
Please check out this bloggerview on the Annkissam web site; it's with David Bresnahan, Nuestra Comunidad's director of resource development and marketing: http://www.annkissam.com/blog/adventures-knowledge-management-0 In the nonprofit sector, the practice of knowledge management is just getting started. I find that many nonprofits have significant challenges that knowledge management could address; however, they are put off by the unfamiliar language. Here's a great definition of the term, from Rachael Stark, an information librarian and knowledge management expert here in the Boston area: "Knowledge management is the process of choosing and using tools andsystems to effectively gather, organdize, share, and use information; of and topic and any type; within and between individuals, organizations, and groups." If you want to know more about knowledge management (a/k/a "KM") for nonprofits, please also check out this web site, which was created by Annkissam: http://nonprofitknowledgemanagement.com/ I also hope that you'll respond to this message by sharing your questions about, concerns about, and adventures in knowledge management with the group!
