The aim of this site is to provide the best available evidence and practical examples of health professionals successfully sharing and applying knowledge and experience to their daily activities. Research in this area is still in the early stages and for that reason, much of the current content has been selected from the business sector. However, the material available on the Knowledge Management Specialist Library has been chosen because the content can also be applied to the health sector. The Knowledge Management Specialist Library is part of the National Knowledge Service.
