Abstract
The paper presents first year results of a research project "Knowledge base for subject area of knowledge organization", conducted 2013-2015 within the Programme of applied R&D in National and Cultural Identity (NAKI) on Faculty of Arts of Charles University in Prague. The aim of the project is to design a knowledge base, which will fill in the gap in Czech scholarly literature through assembling and systemizing the current body of knowledge for the domain of knowledge organization and will enable for storing, browsing, and searching of existing knowledge as well as for discovering or inferencing of new knowledge.
The content of knowledge base will provide back-ground material for the current scientific monograph. It will serve as a resource for updating the Czech terminology, and as an education and training tool particulary in the field of information science and librarianship.
