In today's era, public libraries have become one of the largest knowledge production bases with various sources and references, whose efficient management can have a significant impact on the development of users' information literacy. In addition, the problems and challenges caused by the accelerated speed of production and distribution of knowledge and information in the last two decades have prompted public libraries to use the knowledge of organizations to develop new and appropriate tools.. In this regard, what has attracted the attention of information science and epistemology experts is the knowledge management system, which has found a prominent role and importance in libraries. In this context, it is concluded that knowledge has been accumulated in a wide way in the sources and references of libraries as well as in the experiences of librarians; therefore, the necessary ground for exploiting this knowledge and experiences in order to improve the information literacy of users should be provided. In this way, the question of the present research is what is the efficient model for establishing knowledge management in public libraries in order to improve users' information literacy?

Literature Review:

Dalkir (2011) collected the different cycles of knowledge management that have been identified, confirmed, and practically implemented by different researchers and summarized them in four general stages, which are: 1- acquiring and creating knowledge, 2- sharing and disseminating knowledge, 3- applying and reusing knowledge, and 4- evaluating and retrieving knowledge. Because the knowledge management cycle offered by Dalkir has empirical support and has been successfully used by different libraries, the current research has also used the mentioned cycle.Several models have been introduced to measure information literacy, but since the model of eight enablers was more compatible with the cultural situation and local conditions of developing countries, including Iran, therefore, in the current research, it is practical to measure the information literacy of library users. Public funds of Khuzestan province were used. This model includes eight steps of identification, exploration, selection, organization, creation, presentation, evaluation and application of knowledge and information.

The current research has been done using the metacomposite technique and the Delphi technique. By implementing the six meta-composition steps, 94 components of knowledge management and 80 components of information literacy were extracted from 150 articles and categorized by content analysis technique. With the formation of the expert group and the three-step implementation of the Delphi technique, a consensus was reached among the expert members on 45 components of knowledge management and 40 components of information literacy, and based on the approved components, two separate questionnaires were created for data collection. Data were compiled and collected from librarians and users of public libraries in Khuzestan province. To measure the validity of the questionnaires, the agreement coefficient of the expert group was estimated at 0.772 for the knowledge management questionnaire and 0.794 for the information literacy questionnaire. Cronbach's alpha method was also used to measure reliability. The alpha value of the knowledge management questionnaire was estimated at 0.979 and the alpha value of the information literacy questionnaire was estimated at 0.982. The statistical population of the research included 284 librarians on the one hand, and 45,582 active users over 18 years old of public libraries in Khuzestan province on the other hand. To determine the sample size, using Cochran's formula, 181 librarians and 497 users were selected.

The results of the research showed that the average implementation of knowledge management in the public libraries of Khuzestan province was %60.10, which is higher than the average. Also, the average information literacy of public library users in Khuzestan province was %54.57, which was also higher than the average. The results of the research hypotheses test showed that the implementation of the "knowledge acquisition process" in public libraries with a coefficient of 0.84 has been effective in improving the information literacy of users. The implementation of the "knowledge sharing" process in public libraries has had an impact on the information literacy of users with a coefficient of 0.92. Implementation of the process of "use of knowledge" in public libraries has had an effect on the information literacy of users with a coefficient of 0.88. The implementation of the "Knowledge Evaluation" process in public libraries has had an effect on the information literacy of users with a coefficient of 0.84. Finally, the "Implementation of knowledge management technology" in public libraries of Khuzestan province has had an impact on users' information literacy by % 51.

Public libraries need to use new and appropriate tools in order to achieve their most important goal of existence, which is to develop knowledge and information literacy skills of the society. Because now these libraries have become important learning centers; where knowledge management is one of the main activities related to their new role. In the growing space of knowledge management, public libraries can no longer limit their activities to organizing collections; rather, with efficient and effective management, research and development of knowledge, creation of knowledge base, exchange and sharing of knowledge between employees and users, providing users access to information resources and especially online resources, explicit knowledge processing and tacit knowledge acquisition and realization focus on sharing them.

The present research has shown that knowledge management technology in public libraries can be effective in improving the information literacy of users. Therefore, the current research has proposed the four-stage model of Dal-Kir, which had successful experimental records, in order to properly implement and establish knowledge management. Also, in order to accurately measure the level of information literacy of users in public libraries, the current study has proposed an information literacy model of eight enablers that is more compatible with the cultural environment of our country.

The purpose of the present study was to create a semantic network of concepts in the field of education with the help of folksonomy. The research was applied in terms of purpose and in terms of method it was a co-lexical analysis. This analysis means creating a word-concept in the design of the thesaurus and its conversion to the ontology. This means that first, the texts, the proposed links, as well as the terms and words inserted by the users were turned into the words - concepts. Then, at the same time with this process; 10 experts in the field were interviewed, based on the purposive sampling. Six Primary school Fārsi text books were the main part and the demands of this study from the research population, participating in the folksonomy. The related users were 240 experts of the Organization for Educational Research and Planning and among them 148 people were selected as the sample, based on the Morgan table. The results of this project were run in Fārsi parser and Rover matrices software for the lexical analysis and then they were inserted in the Protégé version5.5 and they were represented with OWLViz and OntoGraf plugins. The desired relationship was categorized into seven general categories, as well as 24 subcategories, and 122 (sample). The hierarchy and relationships among them were determined by extracting the concepts, and the semantic knowledge and repetitive words used by the users and the experts in the folksonomy were identified. Using this method is effective in systematizing the primary school textbooks, so that students and teachers could access the resources in the web environment. Also, it facilitates the storage and retrieval of information.

The main purpose of the present research is to recognize the most appropriate type of planning for designing cultural activities of public libraries in Iran, from the perspective of their librarians and experts. Identifying and understanding the views of librarians and experts in selecting the most appropriate type of planning, as well as prioritizing the use of various plans to design the cultural activities are among the other aims of this research.

This study is an applied research that was conducted by the survey method. A researcher-made questionnaire is selected as the tool for data collection. Content validity was calculated using two coefficients, content validity relative and content validity index. To measure the reliability of the questionnaire, the Cronbachchr('39')s alpha coefficient was used. The research population consisted of two groups: public library librarians and the provisional and staff experts working in the Cultural affairs division of Iran Public Libraries Foundation. In selecting the librarians group, cluster sampling was used to maintain the distribution of samples. For this purpose, Iran was divided into five parts: east, west, center, north and south. Sampling was performed according to the size and volume of each region. 357 librarians were randomly selected 38 experts were selected by random sampling, from whom 29 individuals completed the questionnaires. To analyze the data, Friedman test was applied using the SPSS 22 platform.

The results showed that among the five types of planning, participatory planning from the viewpoint of librarians, and logical planning from the viewpoint of experts ranks first. Moreover, the results of Friedman test showed that ranking of different types of planning for designing cultural activities are significant from the viewpoint of both groups. From the librarianschr('39') viewpoint, logical, strategic, extension, cultural and participatory planning ranked first to fifth respectively, while from the expertschr('39') viewpoint, logical, strategic, promotional, cultural and participatory planning ranked first to fifth respectively.

The present research is the first research that has reviewed the opinions of experts and librarians in selecting the most appropriate type of planning in public libraries. Identifying and understanding the differences between staff and line experts in the type of planning help to promote convergence between them and also help to strengthen the planning. This research can be used as a basis for designing cultural activities. Applying this basis will assist planners and managers of public libraries in making decisions about cultural activities.

Considering the importance of self-care the present study identifies the dimensions and components of self-care informing of patients in the medical information system of Iran.

The method of this study is descriptive and qualitative according to propositions of the research, which was done in two phases of library and fuzzy Delphi methods by referring 10 researchers and medical experts and health in university. 

final research results are presented in a model and considering that in this analysis, Delphi method for dimension determination and the components of self-care informing of patients in the medical information system of the country have been used, all the components identified in Delphi have been confirmed and. In total 2 aspects of informing (4 components) and health care providers (10 components), and 92 indicators from 112 initial indicators have been identified

Considering the dimensions and components obtained from fuzzy Delphi method in this study, these dimensions and components can pave the way for health authorities to increase self-care informing of patients in the medical information system of the country.

Research Feasibility study of the Family and Women’s Studies Thesaurus considering the expansion of information in the field of women and family studies, as well as the wide span of related vocabulary and the development of vocabulary lists and bibliographies, the Family and Women’s Studies Thesaurus can be a professional tool for indexing and retrieval of women’s information in databases, library collections, archives and documentation centers as well as the Internet. Using this thesaurus, an indexing system will be developed which can be used for indexing, storage and retrieval of family and women’s databases.
The research method used in this study is documentary-based and the data gathering method was through library search in printed and electronic resources as well as interviewing professionals in the field of family and Women’s Studies. Through building a concept network between the terms, first the main structure of the thesaurus was determined using the inductive method and then the detailed structure was developed. Using this concept network, terms of the field were determined in a specific system and their interrelations were clarified.
Findings: By studying resources including books, theses and articles in the field of women and family studies, and using ISO 25964-1 standard, the following 13 major categories were determined for the Family and Women’s Studies Thesaurus : 1. Religion; 2. Health and Hygiene; 3. Politics; 4. Economics; 5.Social Sciences; 6. Education; 7. Psychology; 8. History; 9. Culture and Literature; 10. International Relations; 11. Law; 12. Science and Technology; 13. Sports. There exists a rich vocabulary pool in the above categories; in fact around 6000 terms were identified.
Based upon the collected vocabulary and after building the references and scope notes, 243 keywords including 160 preferred terms, 124 related terms, 83 scope notes and 82 non-preferred terms were identified and entered into the Thesaurus Builder software. The alphabetical index, tree index, rotated index and the English-Persian index were developed as a model for the main thesaurus. As a result, the Family and Women’s Studies Thesaurus can be developed based upon the vocabulary and the model at hand.
