IFLA apre una sezione dedicata al Knowledge Management. Managing Information News: "The keen interest that the IFLA community has shown in Knowledge Management (KM) over the past few years has led to the transformation of the Knowledge Management Discussion Group into a Section in 2004, with code number 47.

The Section is intended to provide an international platform for professional communication - directed to increase the awareness of knowledge management and to meet the need for a deeper understanding of its many dimensions and relevance to library and information science professionals. By tracking the developments of the field, the Section aims to facilitate the practical implementation of knowledge management within the IFLA community.

The new Section is intended to support the development and implementation of a knowledge management culture in libraries and information centres."  ¶ 07:36
