The purpose of this research is to demonstrate a profound understanding of the media strategies of the Takfiri movement in increasing support and instilling fear against enemies, and to recognize the patterns of ideology promotion and recruitment in mental imagery. The research with a descriptive-post-event method with an analytical approach and using library and documentary sources tries to answer the question of intellectual and epistemological characteristics by observing the media channels of Takfiri movements, how can it reveal the strategies and effects of their movement? The statistical sample of the research includes content themes, discourse, social effects and fan attraction of Dabiq, Rumiyah, Al-Naba, Voice of Khorasan, "Amaq Al-Akhbariyeh" website and "Ilam" news website, which were published from 2014 to 2023. The findings indicate that the media, for the promotion of ideology, are a key tool for the Takfiri movement in the patterns of content themes, language, social effects, and supporter recruitment. Takfiris use the media trick of the political and social conditions of the region and people's dissatisfaction with the rulers of Islamic countries and the disillusionment of the Muslim residents of Western countries due to the feeling of violation of the right of citizenship to strengthen their social base. To prove their existence, they use the media highlighting of the operations to show the crisis in the borders of the opposition

Productivity is an important topic in knowledge management that plays an effective role in improving the optimal use of resources, services and employees. With knowledge management, economic, technical and cultural attitudes towards production and organizations in a competitive world, they are intelligently trying to get the best results with the least cost and time from their activities. In the meantime, university libraries, as "knowledge portals" and organizations active in the public sector are bound to improve the efficiency of financial resources, maintain information resources and knowledge forces and improve the efficiency of knowledge management is considered a necessity for libraries to maintain efficiency. Therefore, the present study was conducted to provide a model for improving productivity in academic libraries as a roadmap for their future.

The current research is based on the fundamental goal and qualitative nature and is a part of exploratory research that was carried out with the "grounded theory" approach. The statistical population of the research includes 16 experts and faculty members of universities in the fields of management, knowledge and information science, and information technology. The interviewees were selected based on having sufficient history and experience and being interested in the research subject and they were selected according to their expertise and skills using the purposeful sampling method. Research data was collected using a semi-structured interview method with a systematic approach and using open questions. After each interview, to increase accuracy, the interviews were reviewed so that if there was any ambiguity in the understanding of the stated content, it could be corrected with the opinion of the interviewee. After performing the initial steps of analysis, to ensure the correctness of the interpretation, the content and their interpretation were again presented to the participants so that the content can be edited by the interviewees if needed. In the end, the data validity and reliability method with four criteria of credibility, transferability, dependability and confirmability of Lincoln and Guba was used to measure the reliability of the results. To analyze the data, a three-stage design of open, central and selective coding was used.

In examining the categories, during the coding process of 281 open codes from the data obtained from the research interviews, 71 subcategories were coded and extracted. Then, axial coding was done based on the paradigm model. At this stage, the codes that had similar concepts were gathered in the form of a family under one concept. Finally, by using the selective coding of the conceptual model in the form of a paradigmatic model of the categories were outlined as: a) causal conditions; communication channels, management factors, organizational factors, individual factors, technical factors, b) the main phenomenon; Improving the productivity of knowledge management, c) Intervening conditions; external factors and internal factors, d) background conditions; motivational factors and internal organizational factors, e) strategies; Designing a creative and efficient system, designing an information economy system, designing an integrated content management system and designing an efficient system for supporting academic staff, f) consequences; Rapid sharing of knowledge, cost reduction, accessibility of resources, improvement of the work of knowledge workers and tangible income generation from knowledge

The drawing model showed that the extracted pattern of the research can be used as a road map to achieve the goal of improving the efficiency of knowledge management in university libraries, especially in the economic recession when libraries are in the purgatory of services; on the one hand, libraries are obliged to distribute information fairly and on the other hand, the staggering costs and the lack of facilities have reduced the ability to provide appropriate services. Therefore, it seems that the creative economy strategy, which is based on art, culture and sciences can lead to the information economy. Libraries earn money through digital information and services, production, distribution, marketing, pricing, sales, storage, and processing of information compensate for part of the costs. Of course, it should be noted that the creation of knowledge management infrastructure for the development of new technology equipment and digital communication requires cost and investment. As a result, it is expected that library services will be effective and efficient against the costs it creates. Therefore, it seems that paying attention to the creative system, information economy, integrated content management system and the use of creative forces can be effective in improving productivity. Of course, on the condition that the evaluation of the effective factors of productivity, the examination of strengths and weaknesses, the use of creative methods, and scientific thinking in removing obstacles to improving productivity should not be forgotten.

The present study was conducted to identify the status of the articles published in the Nahj al-Balagheh Research Quarterly. The approach of the research is quantitative and with a content analysis method. The statistical population of the research was all articles from the journal in nine years that were received from the journal system. The findings showed that 73.3% of the writers are men. The share of prolific authors is 45.6%. Authors with the scientific rank of assistant professor wrote one-third of the articles. Bu Ali Sina, Tehran, Ferdowsi Mashhad, Lorestan, and Isfahan universities make up about one-third of the authors' organizational affiliations. The field of language and literature constitutes 40.9% of the study field of the authors. 52.4% of the topics of the magazine are literary, psychology, law, linguistics, ethics, and poetry. most of the articles are descriptive-analytical. In general, the publication has a good status in terms of the studied components.

Culture is the identity and entity of any nation, which is rooted in its history, beliefs, and customs. The library has acted as a manifestation of national social cultural identity throughout history by preserving and presenting valuable scientific, cultural, and social resources. The current research was conducted to investigate the role of the library in the cultural development and preservation of identity components and consolidation of social and national identity and culture. A systematic method has been used in the present study. The statistical population of this research was 39 scientific research documents about the role of the library in creating national culture and identity. These articles were published in Elmnet, Magiran, Noormagz, Islamic World Science Citation Center, and Emerald scientific databases. The results indicated that the library is a part of the spiritual and civilizational history of mankind and its traces can still be seen over time from ancient times to the present day. Cultural development depends on the growth of awareness, capabilities, and facilities that meet the material and spiritual needs of the library by preserving written works and cultural resources like chain links. It has not only linked the identity of generations and prevented their identity from breaking, but has also reflected the heartbeat of the social and national cultural identity of society.

One of the complications of Covid-19 has become a social crisis of using virtual networks. This study endeavored to determine the effects of Covid-19 on dependence on virtual networks and the quality of social relations of librarians.

The study was a survey type. The population was the librarians of the public libraries of the Markazi province, and due to the limited population, the census method was used (174 individuals). Data were collected using questionnaires of Internet addiction, social relations, and social effects of Covid-19. The gathered data were analyzed through Correlation Coefficient & One-way ANOVA tests.

There is a significant negative relationship between virtual networks and social relations among the librarians of public libraries in Markazi Province, and the moderating role of Covid-19 in the relationship between virtual networks and social relations.

The prevalence of Covid-19 can incur social costs to librarians, who are active in Cyberspace and in providing public services; reduce their commitment to family, job, and friends. Therefore, knowing the consequences of dependence on virtual networks can keep individuals and their families from harm.

The present study was conducted to identify the status of research on entrepreneurship and income generation in public libraries with a focus on creative economics.

The present study is a systematic study. The statistical population of this study was all the researches done in the field of creative economy in public libraries that have been published in connection with entrepreneurship and income generation in the scientific databases of Google Scholar, Lisa, Science Direct, Emerald, Science, Magiran, Noourmags and the Islamic World Citation Database.

To study the researches, 60 documents of entrepreneurship and income generation were found that the number of entrepreneurship researches was more than 2.3 times more than income generation. In research, entrepreneurship and income generation have been mentioned as creating new opportunities to strengthen the preservation of the values of socio-cultural services. Legal barriers and professional ethics the biggest challenge to the creative economics approach in public libraries is that they need a fundamental solution.

Public libraries like any organization, need funding to achieve their goals, but we know that their funding is insufficient due to the recession and rising costs. Therefore, they have to resort to entrepreneurship and monetization to compensate for the budget deficit and improve the financial resources to provide public services. The creative economics approach, while creating added value, is fully compatible with the ethical and professional principles of libraries.

Today, knowledge management has become one of the main strategies for the survival of libraries that is facing problems. In so doing, this study endeavored to identify the factors of organizational structure to establish knowledge management in the libraries of medical universities.

This was an analytical survey and the population included 184 managers of research and medical libraries who were identified through the websites of medical universities. A total of 150 managers participated in this research and answered the researcher-made questionnaire (Cronbach’s alpha: 0.78). Data were analyzed using the t-test and Friedman test.

There was no significant difference between the factors of organizational structure. In terms of ranking, human component with an average of 2.06, peripheral component with an average of 1.97, and technology component with an average of 1.95 had the highest to the lowest impact on the implementation of knowledge management in the libraries of medical universities.

Implementation of knowledge management in university libraries is a potency that can integrate knowledge investments into the promotion of educational and research services. This feature is provided in the libraries of medical universities to implement knowledge management with the benefit of facilities and the help of knowledgeable staff.

Libraries as social institutions have an indispensable role in meeting the educational and cultural needs of society. However, the economic downturn has increasingly increased the costs of library services, and consequently, limited them in implementation of the programs. Creative economics is a shortcut to making money through art, culture, and science that can partially solve the problem of library budgets. For this purpose, the present study seeks to investigate the pattern of earning income in public libraries with a creative economics approach.

This research is fundamental in terms of purpose and qualitative in terms of nature, which was conducted by using the grounded theory method. Participants were 19 expert experts with sufficient experience and interest in the research topic. They were selected from the fields of librarianship, entrepreneurship, and economics by purposive sampling method from a wide range of communites. Data collection was performed using semi-structured interviews and systematic open-ended questions through telephone and virtual networks. The interviews continued until sufficient information was obtained for saturation.

Data analysis showed that the theoretical basis of the revenue model in libraries consisted of six core components: 1. management mechanisms with sub-components of: nurturing role of senior managers in creating change, providing facilities and equipment, contribution of librarians, and management’s attention to creative human resources; 2. financial and administrative mechanisms which include: development and stabilization of resources and optimization of expenditures, resource management, administrative support for investment, and increasing the financial strength of libraries; 3. proper mechanisms with sub-components of: amending the libraries’ establishment law, creating a legal process for obtaining revenue licenses, clarification of laws and regulations; 4. educational mechanisms which include: in-service training in and familiarity with interactive methods, training and creation, changing training methods, familiarity with new training methods, and changing the attitude of managers to training methods; 5. revenue-generating mechanisms with sub-components of: creating logical interaction with customers, designing service delivery and plans, setting a schedule of financial independence, creating a wide network of product distribution; and 6. structural mechanisms including: strong and continuous support for management programs, improving the quality of cultural services and products, improving social status, promoting specialized management, preparing a strategic document for the creative economy. The development of library services depends on the intelligent mechanisms of the creative economy of these components.

 While the economic downturn and the lack of financial resources have forced libraries to choose the extra income path for their survival, no research has been done on this subject in Iran. Creative economics and entrepreneurship allow libraries to generate revenue through art, culture, and science. Creative revenue will be a big step towards budget independence and reducing the financial burden on libraries, and consequently, reducing staff livelihood concerns, financing acquisitions and up-to-date resources, as well as maintenance of library building. Of course, it should be noted that the creative economy does not only harm the provision of standard library services but also puts public services on the path to prosperity and development due to the legitimacy of social capital and the revenue it brings to libraries.

Identity is the esteem and credibility of a nation. Identity, formed from a set of Material and spiritual Belongings, and it plays a constructive role in social, economic, religious, national, and. different currents. National identity in the Islamic Republic is created from the element of Iranian and Islamic identity to preserve national interests, independence, freedom, social justice, power, and national security. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the components of Iranian-Islamic identity in the Intellectual system of the Supreme Leader in defending National beliefs and values against cultural aggression. In the present study, the method document analysis (content analysis) have used, which is a qualitative research method. The statistical population of the study all the statements of the Supreme Leader around Iranian identity and Islamic identity since, His Holiness's rule over the Islamic society. The results showed that in the statements of the Supreme Leader, the strategic index of Iranian identity with a frequency of 988 (57.9%), the aim index of Persian language and literature with 419 (42.4%) had the highest, and the cultural heritage with 99 (10%) the lowest frequency. The strategic index of Islamic identity with a Frequency of 719 (42.1%), the aim index of behavioral identity with 252 (35%) had the highest, and the belief identity with 91 (12.7) the lowest frequency.

Knowledge management is a planned and structured view of creating, sharing and storing knowledge as an organizational asset that is designed to enhance the ability, speed and effectiveness of an organization to deliver products or services to customers in line with business strategy. But the barriers to knowledge flow usually create barriers that lead to temporary constraints, lack of motivation, lack of awareness, and lack of coordination among departments, which in turn impose a heavy cost on the organization, so the main purpose of this study was to rank university libraries. Based on the maturity model of knowledge management to utilize the services of libraries in knowledge management.

The present study is a qualitative and quantitative combination. The statistical population consisted of 18 experts in the qualitative section and 184 in the central libraries of the university in the first phase and 35 faculty members in the second group of information science in the first stage. . Data collection tool was a researcher-made questionnaire.

In evaluating the importance of Friedman test for knowledge flow dimensions with other dimensions of knowledge flow, mean rating of management factors was 5.72, knowledge source dimension 5.17, organizational factors 4.67, time factors 4.37, communication channel factors 4.22, individual factors 4.21, technical factors 3.92 and knowledge features dimension 3.72 which have the lowest rank and least importance among the different dimensions of knowledge flow. In this test, chi-square statistic value was calculated 97.55 and significance level was 0.000. Since the level of significance is smaller than the alpha value (P <0.05), the null hypothesis that there is no significant difference between the dimensions of knowledge rejection flow and its opposite assumption is confirmed. This means that there is a statistically significant difference between the dimensions of knowledge flow. Also, ranking libraries with maturity levels of knowledge management showed that at developmental level, at the level of individual and managerial factors, at the level of standardization, at the level of knowledge features and communication channels, at the optimization level, at the knowledge source dimension, and at the innovation level, at the organizational factors dimension. Time factors have obstacles. For the knowledge features and communication channels, the standardization stage is more tangible than the stages of knowledge flow. For the source of knowledge, organizational and technical factors are the most hindrances in the fourth level of optimization. For managerial and individual factors, the second level, development, is more tangible for this obstacle. For time factors, innovation is recognized as the most important obstacle. Overall, the results show that innovation is the most tangible step in the whole process.

Academic libraries as organizations, based on the steps of the knowledge management cycle, which include knowledge creation, knowledge gathering, knowledge sharing, knowledge access and use of knowledge, have an important role to play in knowledge management. The current status of the library compared to the maturity levels of KM showed that barriers to knowledge flow factors other than start level, development level, standardization level, optimization level and level of innovation have barriers. These barriers at the level of innovation, the level of exploitation, are the output of knowledge management and the ability to manage and lead an organization. If libraries are effectively managed to overcome the barriers at this level, their output will be desirable. Ineffective management and leadership have the most unsuccessful role in managing libraries. It should be kept in mind that organization leadership is a key pillar of knowledge management, so it should be clear to managers how and where to manage knowledge, because if the management of the organization does not seriously support knowledge management in any way, any ineffective effort will be made. Will be. Of course, not all the barriers to knowledge flow factors can be removed at once, or an implementation plan can be designed for all of them, as there are certainly barriers to organizational life and various factors. So, to get rid of them, you need all the attention. Therefore, although the emphasis on the role of managerial factors is more than other factors, the role of other factors such as organizational factors, human factors, technical factors, temporal factors, communication channel factors should not be overlooked. The present study identifies the bottlenecks and levels of barriers at each level of knowledge management levels in academic libraries. Specifies the factors and indicators needed for each step for the next step. This is a great help for managers to use it to remove the barriers to knowledge management.

The aim of this comparative study is to use the keywords of the Quran, the Bible (New Testament) and the Torah (Old Testament) in the titles of articles in the PubMed databases, the British Library and the Library of Congress, in order to make the best use of them in everyday life.  

The research method is analytical-descriptive and performed using Scientometric techniques. The statistical population of the study was scientific articles published in the databases of the PubMed, the British Library and the Library of Congress. The Quran, the Bible and the Torah are used.

The Findings indicated that in the mentioned time return, 35288 records with the title of holy books have been indexed in the Library of Congress with 21997, the British Library with 13202, the PubMed database with 89 documents. That, of the total number of articles published in the databases respectively: the Bible with 80%, the Quran with 11.3% and the Torah with 8.7%.

The use of holy books in many scientific fields, especially in the field of medicine is used and can help as a guide.

Knowledge management is used in the organization for guidance on the process of creating, disseminating and applying knowledge for organizational purposes. Understanding the weaknesses of/and barriers to the success factors in the flow of knowledge in the organization can affect the knowledge management process. Therefore, the present study deals with the identifying and prioritizing the barriers to knowledge flow in university libraries based on the maturity of knowledge management model taken from the American Productivity and Quality Center.

The present study is a survey-analytical study. The statistical population included 184 managers of central libraries of some universities, all included as the research census. Data were collected through a researcher-made questionnaire.

The barriers to knowledge flow are ranked in priority order: Management factors with a mean rate of 5.72 in the first rank, the source of knowledge with a mean rate of 5.7 in the second rank, organizational factors with a mean rate of 4.67 in the third rank, time factor with a mean rate of 4.37 in the fourth rank, communication channel with a mean rate of .22 in the fifth rank, individual factors with a mean rate of 4.21 in the sixth rank, technical factors with a mean rate of 3.92 in the seventh rank, and knowledge characteristics with a mean rate of 3.72 in the eighth rank. In terms of ranking the barriers of the dimensions of the flow of knowledge with the level of maturity of knowledge management the barriers are the level of innovation, the level of optimization, the level of standardization, the level of development and the level of beginning, respectively.

Academic libraries face the barriers and bottlenecks in the main steps of the knowledge management cycle. Although these obstacles exist in the entire dimensions of the flow of knowledge, the barriers are more tangible in the management dimension. Therefore, attention to effective leadership indicators, the right styles of management, organizational support, and attention to knowledge workers are necessary to eliminate these barriers.

Identifying and ranking barriers to knowledge flow in Islamic Azad University libraries to implement the deployment of knowledge management.

Research method was survey. The statistical population of the study include all managers of the central libraries of Islamic Azad University with at least 2 employees and 60 managers. The data collection tool was an organized questionnaire that its reliability was calculated with Cronbach's alpha of 0/87. Data analysis is done by using Friedman test and using SPSS software version 22.

From the most to the least obstacles average ratings include: management factors with 7/51; technology factors with 7/25; organizational factors with 6.24; individual factors with 4/5; source of knowledge with 3/60; the material knowledge factors with 3/10; communication channels with 2/73; time factors with 1/01.

The results showed that the eight factors of barriers to knowledge flow, implementation of knowledge management establishment in Islamic Azad University libraries make constrains.In order to eliminate existing obstacles attention to managerial factors is one of the main priorities of libraries.

Background and Knowledge management is a process that helps organizations in identify, select, organize, publication and transfer unstructured information and skills. Today, this experience has failed in some organizations about knowledge management. Academic libraries are also subject to similar conditions as an organization. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to identify and compare the barriers of knowledge flow in the libraries of State and Islamic Azad universities.
The research method is a survey-analytical type. Data collected using a questionnaire from managers of 120 central libraries of universities. For statistical analysis, simple t-test is used.
Findings: The dimensions of the source of knowledge and the technical and technological factors of knowledge in the libraries of the public and private universities are significant, meaning that the conditions of the libraries of state universities are better. Comparing the results of communication channels, management and individual factors, there was no significant difference, although managerial barriers were evident in both groups. In the context of comparing knowledge management processes, in the process of access and knowledge sharing, the libraries of public universities have a better performance than Islamic Azad universities, but in the processes of creation, identification, aggregation, review, and use of knowledge of state-run university libraries differs little from the libraries of Islamic Azad universities.
Considering the position and position of libraries, especially university libraries, in the process of knowledge management, in order to overcome obstacle challenges, improve and improve their current status, efficient management should be achieved, defined and operational strategic objectives It is important to consider employees as the main pillars of knowledge managers and to use the information technology tool effectively.

Content analysis is a fast method for rapid access to scientific information published in journals, and using the distances scale which counting the number of threads and identification of the structure contributes to better understanding of the considered and less considered thematic categories, agendas and views of the authors about the environment. The purpose of this study was to analyze the content of the articles published in the Quarterly Journal of Environmental Science and Technology with the science, engineering and environmental management and research and scientific subjects.
In this study, content analysis, which is one of the qualitative research methods, was used. The statistical population was all the articles studied in 755 subject categories.
Findings: For the content analysis of this quarterly publication, 3 main categories have been considered. From the total of 755 subjects, 157 subjects were related to environmental sciences, 320 subjects were about environmental engineering and 256 categories of the issues were related to environmental management. The results indicated that in environmental engineering subject, pollution reduction with the score of 34.8% was the first research priority and management of heavy metals with the score of 22.7% was the second priority.
Thus, the Quarterly Journal of Science and technology is a valuable resource in the field of environmental health, dedicating 56.15% of the subjects to contamination and its management. Considering the authors’ interests, it was also found that the authors in the field of Environment and Energy, with 32.7%, were in the first place and those in the field of Architecture, with 9.8%, were in the second place.
