Objectified Knowledge

Objectified knowledge refers to information that has been transformed into a tangible, accessible form outside the human mind—such as books, databases, diagrams, or models. It’s knowledge that has been organized, recorded, and preserved for others to access and use independently of the original holder’s memory or experience. This process allows knowledge to be shared across time and space, facilitating learning, communication, and application in various contexts. Essentially, it’s the concrete representation of understanding that can be examined, stored, and built upon by different individuals.
