1. 1 knowledge management concept of university library
At present, there is no definite and operable definition of knowledge management, but after analyzing the concept and theory of knowledge management, it is not difficult to find the characteristics of knowledge management. First of all, the object of knowledge management is knowledge, and everything that carries knowledge is the object of knowledge management; Secondly, knowledge management regards knowledge itself as a resource, which has a great influence on it. For university libraries, knowledge management refers to all activities related to the composition and transmission of library knowledge, including the construction of library environment, the services provided, the types and quantities of collections, etc.
1.2 the positive role of knowledge management in university libraries
The knowledge management of university library is a process of upgrading the construction of university library to the level of resource management, and it is also a process of promoting the construction and development of university library to be more organized and systematic. The knowledge management of university library not only makes the service provided by university library more exquisite, but also makes university librarians, teachers and students pay more attention to the characteristics of the library itself as a "resource-based" institution, and promotes the knowledge dissemination function of university books to play a better role.
1.3 Current situation of knowledge management in university libraries
The knowledge management of university library aims at the overall construction of the library. In the construction of university libraries, knowledge system construction and service construction are two key points. The former is to strengthen library resources, and the latter is to improve the services that the library can provide. However, at present, there are some shortcomings in the construction of book resources in university libraries, which are manifested in the slow updating speed and uneven categories. In terms of library services, even if information technology is widely used, there are still some problems for teachers and students to find books. For example, it is difficult to know the specific contents of books only by their titles and authors, which greatly reduces the service quality of libraries.
2. Knowledge management strategies of university libraries
2. 1 Building a library culture with knowledge management as the core
Library culture is embodied in three aspects: the construction of library environment, the service attitude and quality of library staff, and the definition of library's own function and status. In colleges and universities, the construction of library environment should meet the reading needs of teachers and students in colleges and universities, that is, the types of books should meet the reading needs of teachers and students, and the borrowing environment should be quiet and comfortable; The service attitude and quality of library staff should make teachers and students feel intimate and belong to the library; The definition of library's own function should go beyond "providing resources" and rise to the level of "organizing and disseminating knowledge". That is, in the process of library construction, we should form a construction concept centered on knowledge management, and carry out library construction from the aspects of subject, object and management content of knowledge management. Investigate the reading needs of teachers and students in colleges and universities, compare the types and quantities of books in libraries, and invest funds to update books; Formulate a unified library service standard to ensure that the service of library staff meets the psychological needs of teachers and students in colleges and universities, so that the library can truly become the "home of hearts" for teachers and students; Libraries should hold regular reading exchange meetings, cultural exhibitions and other activities, become the main body of knowledge circulation and cultural dissemination, and show their charm as the "main body of knowledge dissemination" in colleges and universities.
2.2 Strengthen personnel training and promote knowledge management.
The main purpose of establishing a library is to improve people's reading ability and knowledge ability. Therefore, in the process of library management, we should attach importance to the construction of knowledge management and take corresponding countermeasures to promote the implementation of knowledge management. In addition, strengthening knowledge management should start from the root, realize that talent management is the core of knowledge management, attach importance to talent training, quality education and lifelong education for librarians, and enhance their creativity and knowledge level, so as to better promote library work. The main methods to improve the quality of talents can be summarized as follows: First, on-the-job education and training. At present, there is a shortage of staff in many university libraries in China. Accordingly, the workload of librarians is relatively heavy. Therefore, strengthening personnel quality training, promoting personnel learning, improving work efficiency, combining work with study, and rapidly improving professional ability to meet the needs of all aspects are effective ways to train talents. Second, pay attention to training. According to the needs and priorities of library work, choosing the right direction and cultivating knowledge can select a group of managers with strong working ability and high professional quality for directional training, supplement them with new knowledge and promote their transformation into key management talents. Third, train all business personnel on a regular basis. Because of the different qualities and working abilities of library staff, it is necessary to train them regularly to improve their knowledge structure.
2.3 Make full use of information technology to improve the level of knowledge management.
At present, information technology has developed rapidly and gradually penetrated into all walks of life. It not only promotes the development of modern science and technology, but also provides convenience for the development of libraries and establishes a more convenient reading mode. Therefore, the realization of knowledge management objectives of public libraries must be based on information technology. In library management, information technology can be divided into three levels: one is library knowledge base. Knowledge base is the data server of the library, which provides convenience for the transformation of library information. People can query knowledge through knowledge base to improve reading efficiency. Second, the computer service system. The system can promote the popularization of knowledge management hardware equipment. Third, the network system. Promote the dissemination of knowledge in all aspects of the library and improve the enjoyment of knowledge.
3 principles that should be followed in the implementation of knowledge management strategy in university libraries
3. 1 the principle of seeking truth from facts
Implementing the knowledge management strategy of university library requires a lot of manpower and material resources, which will have an impact on other activities of the university, such as resource allocation. Although library construction is the focus of the development of colleges and universities, it is not all. If all the affairs in colleges and universities can't develop harmoniously, it is meaningless to simply develop libraries. Therefore, when implementing the knowledge management strategy of university library, we should follow the principle of seeking truth from facts and proceed from the "actual situation" of library construction and university's own development to realize effective and meaningful knowledge management.
3.2 People-oriented principle
Colleges and universities are places to train talents, and in fact, places to provide educational services. Therefore, the primary function of university library is to provide knowledge services for teachers and students, rather than building itself into a "symbol" for teachers and students to worship and pay tribute to. Therefore, the implementation of the knowledge management strategy of university library should follow the people-oriented principle, that is, from the perspective of service providers, whether teachers and students like it or not, whether teachers and students need it or not, and whether teachers and students are convenient or inconvenient, so that the library can truly develop into a knowledge service institution in universities.
4 conclusion
To sum up, knowledge management is actually related to the knowledge construction and development of university libraries, including the construction of the library's own knowledge system and the knowledge services provided by the library. At present, university libraries have room for improvement in these two aspects. Building a library culture with knowledge management as the core, attaching importance to improving knowledge management from personnel training and improving the level of library knowledge management with the development of information technology are the necessary means for university libraries to improve knowledge management at present. At the same time, it should be noted that no matter how to manage the knowledge of university libraries, we should proceed from the university's own ability, take the reading needs of teachers and students as the basis, and take the service function of the library as the guide. Only in this way can knowledge management be meaningful.
