Abstract
Knowledge management (KM) creates value and competitive advantage via innovation. Library and information science (LIS) developed KM using social epistemology and varied scientific methods. LIS continued to study KM to guarantee its understanding and usage in the organization. KM attitudes and actions must also be agreed upon. This chapter discusses the LIS viewpoint on KM and delivers the fundamental point, which implies that LIS may advance knowledge management. Thus, readers should ask questions about LIS and all of the preceding advances, especially KM. The perception of data, information, and knowledge especially has changed significantly. LIS perspective should be dynamic, and librarianship has individuality and dignity with knowledge managing tradition. LIS and Librarianship roles, especially KM, may help drive these new advancements. Instead of only watching or ignoring improvements, active engagement and additional research are expected to raise LIS roles on KM.
