No such thing as … information resource management
Alistair Mutch · Management Decision · 1996
Argues that concepts such as information resource management have more to do with data than information. Notes that this has the impact of distracting from the central issue of how meaning is created. Argues that much more attention needs to be paid to the process of knowledge formation. Discusses the value of an alternative metaphor, that of information literacy, but this is also found to be of limited value. Concludes that in both training within organizations and in higher education far more attention needs to be paid to issues of knowledge and meaning.
