For the digital libraries of China, the development of networked information resources, especially of metadata, is still a principal task. At the same time, many information resources have been accumulated and the exploitation of them is far from sufficient. The current chief utility / keyword search undermines seriously the potential value of information resources, especially the metadata, which contains valuable content description and indexing information. To solve this problem, we have devised a new paradigm/an integrated knowledge network. It is formed by merging the classification and thesaurus into a concept network and then distributing the metadata records into the concept nodes according to their subjects, just like the ''shelving'' of the metadata. We have built an experimental system, VISION, by incorporating a portion of the Chinese Classification and Thesaurus with the bibliographic data of the computing domain from Peking University Library. Such a knowledge network is not only a framework for metadata organizing, but also a structure for knowledge navigation, retrieval, and learning, and we believe it will be a catalyst for better knowledge management in digital libraries.
