Title

Information alchemy : transforming information through knowledge utilization

Source

Journal of the American Society for Information Science. 44(1993) no.4, S.217-221

Year

1993

Abstract

Strategies for knowledge utilization in the health and social service fields have many conceptual linkages with the field of information science. Knowledge utilization involves interventiona aimed at increasing the use of knowledge to solve human problems. A review of definitions of various subfields included under this term is followed by a discussion of the historical evolution of knowledge utilization concepts and practices. Basic principles and strategies are presented, along with key issues confronting the field for the 1990s. Areas of current and future interaction with information science also are discussed
