This study was conducted to investigate Feasibility of Resource Description and Access (RDA) implementation in manuscripts’ bibliographic records.Paper type: This research is a practical (applicable research)The present research is based on the Research and Development based on documentary and the comparative approach. Findings: The findings prove that out of the identified elements in RDA, (chapter 1 to chapter 7) 33 elements are related to manuscripts. Thus, 77.88 percent of the elements in RDA correspond with the elements used in cataloguing of Astan Quds Razavi and only 12.12 percent does not correspond with them, which demonstrates a near relationship between the elements and rules related to cataloguing of manuscripts in Astan Quds Razavi and RDA. Moreover, out of 46 elements exist in cataloguing the manuscripts of Astan Quds Razavi, 63 percent is corresponded that not corresponded97.30 percent of this 37 percent mismatch is related to codicology, which proves that RDA has been weaker than the rules of Astan Quds Razavi to clarify the special features of the manuscripts.

Regarding the importance of information organization elements, this research is to examine knowledge management category and consider the role of librarians and information science experts in knowledge management.
Methodology: In this research, the role and the function of the modern information organization rules on the promotion and optimization of the knowledge management process have been determined. Furthermore, the represented models at knowledge management cycles and the role of information organization (as an interface at this process) have been studied. Then, the effective descriptive elements on “Nonaka & Takeuchi” model have been identified as one of the prominent models at knowledge management through Resource Description and Access (RDA). Finally, the core elements related to the knowledge management process and the importance of the related concepts have been represented in order to be used at knowledge management cycle of the organization.
Findings: This study showed that organization concept exists in different knowledge management models and focusing on it could improve objective and operating aspects of this models. Also, it seems the RDA helps homogeneity, consistency and better institutional information retrieval in knowledge management process which will happen by using RDA in institutional knowledge repositories.
