The episode is based on an article by Birger Hjørland, entitled "Fundamentals of Knowledge Organization" (Fundamentos da Organização do Conhecimento), which examines in depth the field of Knowledge Organization (OC), especially in Information Science and Library Science (LIS).
The author argues that OC is a vast interdisciplinary field, historically fragmented and excessively influenced by technological development, and outlines five stages of technological development, including manual indexing and citation-based recovery.
Most importantly, the connection between the organization of information and the development of the two most used mechanisms in the world: Google! Find out how Google is intimately connected to the information organization.
