Abstract

This paper proposes an assessment of Paul Otlet's Documentation anchored in Birger Hjørland's argument that the field of Knowledge Organization (KO) must be formed by two interdependent views, a broad conception on how knowledge is socially and intellectually produced and organized, and a narrow view that deals with the organization of the documents that register knowledge. Otlet's conceptions of individual and collective knowledge are addressed, as well as the role of documents in its conservation and communication, in order to show how the intended universal application of Documentation's principles and methods was supposed to make registered knowledge easily accessible and clearly apprehended as a unified whole. It concludes that Otlet's Documentation fulfils in its own context the requirement claimed by Hjørland for the KO field of narrow conceptions being sustained by broader views of the organization of knowledge, and therefore qualifies itself as a historical component of KO, being capable of contributing as such to its epistemological and theoretical discussions.
