The purpose of this article is to explain the relationship between knowledge management and educational affairs through explaining the basic components and main elements related to the aforementioned fields based on influential conceptual models.

This descriptive-analytical article explained the research back ground in the relations between knowledge management and education in Iran based on the documentary research method. In the explanation of the mentioned relations, the influential international conceptual models have been interpreted and analyzed to clarify the related process.

Knowledge and knowing are considered as the two main infrastructures in the field of educational affairs and the establishment of knowledge-based systems. From another perspective, tacit and explicit knowledge and the relationship between them are considered as a basis for the historical root of the application of knowledge management in education. The relationship between different types of knowledge leads to the development of individual, group and organizational knowledge. The systematic and internal relationships between educational fields, especially higher education and the knowledge management process can be analyzed by explaining the main elements of education and the knowledge management cycle. In rooting out these findings, three international authorized and valid conceptual models, including Knowledge and Knowledge Matrix, SECI conceptual model and Knowledge Management Framework for Teaching Universities have been interpreted.

The process of adaptation and knowledge exchange as the main components of knowledge management is fully related to the goals of educational affairs in knowledge-based empowerment and knowledge enhancement of all stakeholders in the field of education. Thus, in any knowledge dissemination program, the content of education, that is, knowledge and how to transfer it through knowledge management mechanisms should be taken into account for the learner as the end user.

The aim of this study is to analyze the theoretical foundations, the concept, documentation history, steps and the procedure of documentation of knowledge on the basis of life cycle of organizational knowledge and the introduction of automatic and semi-automatic operational strategies of the extraction of tacit knowledge and coding or the representation of explicit knowledge.
This paper is an overview-analysis which is done using the library method and the theoretical sources analysis.
Findings: In this study, based on the postulate that without extracting and documenting knowledge, knowledge management will find no objective expression in any organization, the literature and history is analyzed to document the organizational knowledge. To our knowledge, it became clear that the Iranian organizations are not in good conditions regarding the knowledge documentation. One of the most important reasons for this problem is that organizations are not familiar with the documentation procedures and the lack of knowledge about its practical strategies. In order to meet these organizational issues in this research first it is tried based on the postulate that the process of documenting the patterns will follow the life cycle of corporate knowledge to introduce the most important cyclical patterns and to analyze the process of documenting based on the life cycle pattern. The next step, regarding the necessity of organizations’ familiarity with the operational strategies of extraction of tacit knowledge and coding or the representation of explicit knowledge along with referring to the variety and selection criteria of each strategy, the most important practical strategies in both automatic and semi-automatic individual and group level under the title strategies of generation/analysis protocol were introduced. In the end, some recommendations are provided based on the research findings.

In today’s dynamic and complicated environment، knowledge is the most important growth factor of organizations to gain a competitive advantage. In agricultural societies، labor and land were the main factors of manufacturing. Passing through a transitional period from agricultural to industrial society، capital was considered as one of the main factors of production in addition to labor and land. With the advent of knowledge society، knowledge was considered as a major factor of production because labor، land and capital will gain more added values by application of knowledge. Hidden nature of knowledge has made it a unique source that could create values in the organization. With this aim، knowledge management was placed on the agenda of directors. If something can be administrated، undoubtedly، it should be administrated، but could we manage knowledge as a resource? In this paper، first we study the nature of knowledge and explain different dimensions expressed by different authors. Then، we study the accuracy of putting the two words together; knowledge and management.

The present research aims to study the man power status of the head office of public libraries foundation. It also aims to study the performance of the foundation in knowledge convergence processes among the staff. This research is a survey method. The research population included all the staff of the central office (headquarters) of the public library foundation (managers and staff). There was no sampling. The research tool for the data collection was a researcher-made questionnaire including 8 items and 46 closed questions. The findings show that the index of "staff individual tacit knowledge" has the highest average. Also, the indexes of "organization revealed knowledge" and "convergence of revealed knowledge to tacit knowledge” have the lowest average.Originality/Value: A study of the knowledge management literature shows that very few research works have been conducted on knowledge management in public libraries. In this research, in addition to preparing a questionnaire for kinds of knowledge, knowledge production processes, and knowledge convergence based on Nonaka, the status of human resources is studied in the head office of public library foundation. At the end, according to the findings, some appropriate guide lines have been presented for developing knowledge and man power function in relation with knowledge convergence processes.
