Google has developed a site called Knol that has hundreds of thousands of pages written by authors in any kind of category imaginable. There has been discussion by knol authors on developing a KnolLibrary to find categories easier. We are looking for and trying to develop an identification and organization plan that will lay the foundation for what will become the world's largest and best Internet content library. Several different knol authors are working to develop an idea on how to reach the goal to convince Internet visitors and Google that Knol is the largest and best organized Internet multi-purpose library, just as Wikipedia is the largest and best Internet encyclopedia. One idea may become the best option or there may be a combination our of ideas on or off the Knol Platform to make it a success.

Knol authors are shaping collections that are beginning to fill a giant new Knol Library "building" Google has constructed. Knol Library collections have the potential to become an immense academic research and public library serving many different unique and diverse audiences. To achieve that goal Knol authors need to help Google configure the Knol Library to become a linked series of specialized academic discipline libraries along with a large public library for general audiences. By doing so Knol authors and Google can better attract new Knol authors, including academic research community members, and also develop policies to better evaluate and "shelve" inappropriate and low quality knols. From a knol by Eric Clausen
