Presentation paper for the 2017 International Conference on Knowledge Management. This paper studies information seeking behavior among law students including: how previous literacy training before and during law school, law student gender, where one attends law school, year in law school, and previously obtained education affects law students' selection of information sources, their understanding of common knowledge, and their decision of whether or not to give attribution to these sources.

Presented at the 2017 International Conference on Knowledge Management. This presentation examines how previous information literacy training affects law students' selection of information sources, and how this relates to student demographics.

Presentation paper for the 2017 International Conference on Knowledge Management. This paper discusses questions of experience, services provided, and staffing necessary for a scholarly communications department.

Successful organizations are continuously looking for better ways to improve efficiency. Knowledge management (KM) in institutions is essentially based on an understanding of knowledge creation and knowledge transfer. At Tarrant County College, we are currently developing a District-wide knowledge management (KM) program. This KM process is implemented via micro pilot projects and processes; and an analysis of current technology, structure, and culture. We carefully try to anticipate challenges we will encounter as the project is executed (geographical distance during a pandemic, cultural barriers, dealing with tacit knowledge…). Next, we carefully begin to create a road map for the KM process including: Establishing objectives, preparing culture change, creating a high-level process, identifying KM/communication/knowledge dissemination gaps, selecting appropriate technology, and deciphering the current status of KM throughout the District. Then, we attempt to implement our KM process via micro pilot projects. We will soon develop methods for evaluating our KM workflow. Our initial results suggest Laserfiche might be able to host 70% of or data and information, however other tools such as ITSM, Microsoft TEAMS, Team Dynamics… will also be needed to host data and information.

Paper explores why some scholars are reluctant to participate in the Open Access movement and potential solutions for mitigating common concerns, such as plagiarism, potential loss of income, and pirated data and information.
