7. Knowledge management (KM) and
Information literacy (IL) in working environment
viewed by information specialists
Before: Browsing…
Formal Communication on paper: Books,
Scientific journals, specialty journals
Informal communication: catalogs,
exhibitions,
Now
Internet
Company Websites
Social Networks (Twitter, Facebook,
Linkedin…)

8. CURATION for knowledge
management
What is curation?
– A still recent concept
– Many tools
• Scoop.it Vs other tools
• Experiences with Scoop.it in lighting
• Other experiences for
– Other fields of Research,
– Science mediation
– Information literacy

9. Curation tools (>50)
• Google news
• Pearltrees, Paper.li, Pinterest, TumblR,
Storify, Sharezy, Flipboard...
• Scoop.it
– A french and californian start-up
– Various plans (Individual, Educational, Business)
» Crawling tool +++
» Format, capabilities of enrichment
searching and sharing +++
