Information Science as Knowledge Translation

Information science as knowledge translation


Bulletin of the American Society for Information Science

In the medical field, knowledge translation is the process of putting research findings into action for patient education, practitioners’ use and further research. It is a method of codifying what has been learned through research to improve communication within the professional community. The same view of knowledge sharing may be applied to library and information science (LIS). But the LIS community has been slow to adopt and implement our own research, to gain practical value by translating theory to knowledge. Greater attention should be paid to communication within the professional community to ensure the effective spread and use of knowledge gleaned from information science research. Just as medical informatics serves knowledge transfer in the field of medicine, exploring community informatics could shed light on how other disciplines, including LIS, translate knowledge to action through communication processes within professional communities.
