“The world is changing” as Michel Serres states in “Petite Poucette” (March 2012) and in his speech at the French Academy (November 2017). He argues:“We must draw the consequences of this transformation of space that affects humanity with the emergence of new information and communication technologies – particularly by striving to establish a new balance between the material and the intangible.”

Throughout history, two major inventions have profoundly transformed knowledge organization (KO), bridging culture and knowledge transmission: writing (circa the fourth millennium BCE) and printing (introduced by Johannes Gutenberg in the 15th century). Today, digital technology represents a third major revolution, significantly impacting knowledge organization systems (KOS), knowledge transmission, education, pedagogy, society, and the global economy, now increasingly oriented toward the intangible.

At the dawn of the 21st century, we are witnessing the rise of a new discipline known as Digital Sciences, encompassing both the hardware and software dimensions of information and communication technologies. These digital sciences are redefining how knowledge is structured, shared, and accessed, while reshaping social interactions and human relationships with knowledge. A key development in this evolution is the emergence of Generative Artificial Intelligence (Generative AI), which is transforming knowledge creation, classification, retrieval, and governance.

As digital sciences and AI-driven knowledge systems evolve, society must adapt and develop new skills to navigate these transformations. Among the major shifts:

·        The rise of Generative AI in knowledge organization, affecting both automatic knowledge production and interactive systems for learning and discovery.

·        The transformation of social networks and digital platforms into intelligent knowledge ecosystems capable of facilitating collective intelligence and automated knowledge curation.

·        The challenges posed by AI-driven misinformation, such as deepfakes, synthetic content, and biases in knowledge representation.

·        The ethical implications of AI governance in scholarly and professional knowledge organization, particularly concerning transparency, bias mitigation, and intellectual property rights.

These changes profoundly impact education, research methodologies, knowledge structuring, and decision-making, reshaping how academics, professionals, and institutions engage with knowledge organization systems (KOS).

Submission Guidelines

All papers must be original and not simultaneously submitted to another journal or conference. The following paper categories are welcome:

·        Manuscripts must follow the IEEE template guidelines, including figures, tables, and references.

 

·        The paper must be prepared by using the template in MS Word or LaTeX as PDF files through EasyChair System:  https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=iskomaghreb2025
