Knowledge management using text classification

A method and system for managing technologies supports both local and enterprise level requirements. The management system has a controlled lexicon containing technology-specific terminology data, and a web-based collaboration tool. The collaboration tool populates a card catalog based on the technology-specific terminology data and based on collaboration input provided by one or more stewards. The management system further includes a web portal for maintaining a bookshelf of links to entries in the card catalog. A bookshelf of links is maintained over a networking connection based on entries of the card catalog. A bookshelf is accessed based on a search input from a user. The steward and user may be remotely located or may be employees of different organizations.
