Asmaa Bouaamri, Agnes Hajdu Barat
The awareness of the changing environment that we are living in, and the way ourdaily interactions and communications are changing, and swapping to different kinds ofcultures worldwide, pauses us to re-think our perceptions of Knowledge Organization(KO) and databases as the new forms of the world’s culture. The digitization of ourworld changed massively our behaviours to seeking and accessing information.Knowledge Organization reflects the societal and cultural behaviours of thepopulation shaping it. The action that takes place when information is recognized andorganized based on human understanding is, therefore, an interaction between a socialand cultural context with individuals, institutions, and the way of interpretation andcomprehension of that particular information. Human action, the background of societaland cultural perception, which interferes in the KO of certain information, is cruciallyreflecting a particular heritage of human activities.As a result of the development of technological tools and environments, theperception of KO is also changing to practically and exclusively a digitized one.Databases and other forms of virtual and digitized platforms became the main activity ofhuman behaviour, and which is mirrored in the way that Knowledge is organized withina digitized culture.It is in this purpose, and as a result of the aforementioned, that this research paper isabout to explore and perceive how can Knowledge Organization be one of the aspects ofculture in the digitized world, and how can its preservation maintain a SustainableDevelopment (SD) of countries around the globe.
