4th ISKO UK Biennial Conference
Knowledge Organization - making a difference
The impact of knowledge organization on society, scholarship and progress
University College London, 13-14 July 2015
Programme
The systematic and structured organization of knowledge and information has far-reaching applications, underlying effective
searching, browsing, navigation and exploration of collections and networks. This conference aims to explore, justify and proclaim the continuing demand for knowledge organization (KO). It will be a showcase for research and development that offers benefits for cultural activities and economic development and an opportunity to consider the impact that KO has had, is having and will have.
