Notes:

1) Until 2016, the School of Information Sciences was known as Graduate School of Library and Information Sciences
2) The specialization pathway "Knowledge Management and Competitive Intelligence" was "Research and Analysis: Business Research, Competitive Intelligence, Knowledge Management and Prospect Research"
3) The "Workshop on Governing Knowledge Commons" was probably initiated by the Engelberg Center on Innovation Law and Policy, School of Law, New York University. Currently (11/24), the workshop is lead by four researchers from the Innovation Practice Institute, School of Law, University of Pittsburgh , the Engelberg Center on Innovation Law and Policy, School of Law, New York University, the School of Information Science, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, and the Charles Widger School of Law, Villanova University. All four researchers are co-principal investigators on the National Science Foundation grant that supports the formation and development of the Governing Knowledge Commons Research Coordination Network (GKC RCN).
4) The DKRC, funded in part by a National Science Foundation grant from the Knowledge & Distributed Intelligence Program, is a multidisciplinary group/consortium of individuals and groups dedicated to the study of how knowledge is produced, shared, negotiated and co-constructed within distributed communities and the way in which technologies support these exchanges.
