Žinių kultūros ugdymas – strateginė akademinių bibliotekų valdymo kryptis

LTAkademinės bibliotekos, aktyviai dalyvaujančios universitetinių žinių kūrimo ir ypač sklaidos procesuose, yra stipriai veikiamos palyginti uždaros akademinės aplinkos su jai būdinga institucine autonomija ir vertybėmis, dažnai priešingomis efektyvaus dalijimosi žiniomis kultūrai. Akademinės bibliotekos turi ieškoti būdų, kaip tapti atviromis, nauja darbo kultūra pasižyminčiomis organizacijomis, kurti veiklos strategijas, kurių įgyvendinimo sėkmę dažnai lemia organizacijos vidinė kultūra. Dalijimosi žiniomis kultūra straipsnyje nagrinėjama kaip organizacijos bendros kultūros dalis. Aptariami galimi organizaciniai ir techniniai dalijimosi žiniomis metodai, ypač pabrėžiant pasitikėjimo ir tarpusavio supratimo aplinkos kūrimą. Pagrindinis straipsnio tikslas - atlikti žinių kultūros ugdymo organizacijose mokslinių publikacijų analizę, tuo atkreipti Lietuvos bibliotekų vadovų dėmesį į šią aktualią valdymo problemą ir paskatinti juos ugdyti savo vadovaujamose organizacijose tokią kultūrą. Atliekant tyrimą naudotasi mokslinės literatūros analizės metodu. [Iš leidinio]Reikšminiai žodžiai: Žinių kultūra; Ugdymas; Bibliotekos; Knowledge culture; Management; Libraries.

ENOver the last decade there is a continuing discussion on various aspects of modern organization in the management literature. The constant development of the individuals skills and knowledge is being recognised as an important element of organizations capacity to realise changes. Knowledge sharing is being treated as critical to organizations that use their knowledge as an asset to achieve competitive advantage. Academic libraries, being traditionally defined as information and knowledge related organizations, are being influenced by this discussion as well. These libraries have to develop a new strategy to correspond to this new working environment. From the point of management, Lithuanian academic libraries could be described as traditional and not very conductive to the knowledge sharing culture. In the article, this assumption is illustrated by some findings revealed by students of the Faculty of Communication of Vilnius University. From the authors point of view, it is useful for the managers of Lithuanian academic libraries to be acquainted with the theoretical and practical ideas of the development of knowledge culture in organizations. The main purpose of this article is to review some latest publications on the development of knowledge culture and knowledge sharing in organizations. Sharing knowledge culture in most reviewed publications is regarded as part of the overall organizational culture. The main role of the individuals in the process of creation of organizational knowledge is stressed by most authors cited in the article.Organizations cannot create knowledge without individuals, so they have to support creative individuals and to provide the context for knowledge generation. There is a great variety of factors influencing the creation and development of knowledge culture mentioned in the knowledge management literature. The ten factor model proposed by Oliver Stan and Kondal Reddy Kandadi, based on their empirical analysis, is introduced. These factors are leadership, evangelization, infrastructure, physical attributes, reward systems, communities of practice, business process, recruitment, time allocation, organizational structure. The great role of the leadership in the development of knowledge culture is recognized. On the basis of theoretical analysis some conclusions are made. [From the publication]
