INF302 Information Management in Organisations (8)
Enrolment Restriction: Not available to students enrolled in the Master of Applied Science (Library & Information Management)
This subject aims to provide students with an overview of information/knowledge management in an organisational context. It explores how information is used in support of organisational objectives, examines information processes in an organisation, explores knowledge management issues, discusses ways in which information managers assess information needs, describes techniques used to evaluate information provision, and introduces students to the development of corporate information policies. The subject is intended to set corporate library services within the wider context of strategic information management and to give students an opportunity to study the management of information in a context that is not necessarily library-based.
