Title
Metaphors Of Time And Installed Knowledge Organization Systems: Ouroboros, Architectonics, Or Lachesis?
Abstract
Introduction. This paper presents three metaphors of time present in knowledge organization systems.Analysis. These three metaphors the architectonic, ouroboric, and lachesic, can be used as lenses to analyse extant or newly designed knowledge organization systems.Conclusion. A foundational view of evaluating and theorizing about knowledge organization systems must account for change and time in order for us to take a long view of improving knowledge organization and our understanding of knowledge organization systems, and these metaphors might be helpful.
