Abstract
Libraries historically have been identified with the functions of
storage and retrieval. In recent years, they have expanded their role
to include information transfer and the creation of the networked,
digital library for information access and dissemination. More
recently, the William H. Welch Medical Library (WML) of the Johns
Hopkins University (JHU) has been exploring strategies to integrate the
library more fully into the scholarly and scientific communication
process. The result is a new role we call knowledge management.
