I've been asked to look into setting up a knowledge service and current awareness monitoring section within my organisation.

I'd like to speak to anyone that currently runs or has experience of running something similar within their own organisation.

Where do I start?
How do you deliver the information?
How to do an audit of requirements?
How to sort the wheat form the chaff?
etc etc

Thanks

Martin
