Introduction to Knowledge Organization was the first part in the ISKO UK Knowledge Organization Education programme of virtual classes 2020-2021. The Introduction track took place from 8 October to 10 December 2020 and consisted of nine classes covering the fundamental techniques and tools of Knowledge Organization (KO). The first three classes introduced the basics, allowing participants to familiarise themselves with key concepts and terminology. These initial sessions prepared the ground for a further exploration of key components in the KO tool-box

Speakers in this series were Sylvie Davies, Vanda Broughton, Leonard Will and Stella Dextre Clarke - lecturers and the knowledge organization experts and founding members and officers of the UK Chapter of ISKO.
