Timeline for Knowledge Organization is an outline of the history of knowledge organization. One might say, however, that it displays a subjective or even a false story because bibliometrics, information retrieval, Internet search engines etc. are not a part of the history of a field "knowledge organization" as founded by people like Charles A. Cutter, W. C. Berwick Sayers, Henry E. Bliss and Ernest Cushington Richardson. Most of the technological innovations are not based in research done in the tradition which gave rise to the term "knowledge organization" but are based on findings from external disciplines such as computer science and linguistics.
