The importance and benefits of Knowledge Management was heard loud and clear at the SLA’s annual conference, but what about when people are in the midst of trying to find something, and they can’t. To avoid panic and frustration it might help if we preemptively trained our staff in how to respond to an Information Emergency. I have created some humorous graphics for your staff to help drive home the point of having a KM plan. Tell them “if you have an Information Emergency, which CPR method would you prefer?”
