Episode notes

Establishing a structured foundation of knowledge is crucial for effective utilization. Hiring librarians and archivists should not be delayed until a company is large; they should be brought in early on to organize information efficiently. Librarians play a significant role in enhancing the productivity of software engineers by enabling quicker access to relevant information, aiding in faster decision-making. Their contribution as force multipliers is substantial, particularly in the initial stages of a business's growth, ensuring smooth knowledge management processes from the start.
