Objectives
We all know the old axiom, "Knowledge is power." And though it's true, there's a caveat: In order to unlock the power of any knowledge, people first need access to it. Access to knowledge is an issue many sectors face. They have information to share with others, but they don't always have an effective means by which to share it. Considering this, ITN-BUET has developed this knowledge repository that helps to create, organize, and manage self-service content for the audience.
Knowledge repository will act as a centralized hub for sharing information, guidelines, policies, instructions, process documentation, and more. Information stored in a knowledge repository is designed to be easy to find, understand, and engage with. The proposed Knowledge Repository will assist with the identification, creation, distribution of CWIS/FSM knowledge pool. Knowledge Repository, at its best, gives a single, unified pool of information that is easily accessible and discoverable.
The objectives of establishing the Repository are to making the knowledge products and learnings-
- Quick to Access: Knowledge products must be accessed in real-time, and it must be accessible from any device, anywhere in the world, and even in multiple languages.
- Easy to Discover: One should find anything needed spending minimum amount of time. All that data is useless if people cannot find what they're looking for quickly and efficiently.
- Easy to Update: Ensure that data is uploaded and updated on a regular basis and in any preferred time.

Benefits of Knowledge Repository
Democratized knowledge refers to knowledge that is accessible to everyone regardless of their organization or role. Everyone can access the information/ knowledge product, ask questions, make comments, share their ideas and experiences, and find the information they need to do their best work.
Find the information you need faster so you can spend more time doing meaningful work.
Preserve tacit knowledge and expertise when any person leaves the organization or moves to a new role. Important information is never limited to one person's head or organization's hard drive.
Find the content that's most relevant to you through a personalized feed. Follow posts, authors, tags, search terms, and more to ensure you're always up to date.
Avoid the confusion caused by outdated or competing versions of documents. Use curation tools to identify duplicate content, schedule content reviews, and flag posts for review.
