Purpose: Knowledge Organizing is one of the oldest and most basic topics in Library and information science Whose main domain is immutable over time; However, the environment in which the organization operates has changed dramatically and will continue to change. Published research often describes only certain aspects that show only a partial picture of the perspective of its knowledge organization research. In fact, it is difficult for researchers to get an overview of this field by reviewing such articles. Scientometric methods are expected to help meet this need. This study aims to investigate the centrality indicators in the co-authorship network of Persian articles in the field of knowledge organization.Methodology: This research is an applied type that has done with the approach of scientometrics and analysis of social networks. The research data were selected from 106 keywords of his knowledge organization in the title field, which were selected after consultation with subject matter experts in this field; Together with all the articles published in selected journals of information science and epistemology indexed in the Islamic World Science Citation center from 1378 to 1398. Finally, the retrieved records were limited to research papers, conference papers, and review papers and limited to the subject of Library and information filed. Out of 1482 authors who were involved in the publication of 1410 articles, 168 with at least 4 articles were analyzed using UCINET software. After that, a square matrix of dimensions 168 by 168 was formed,

Knowledge organization, which provides easy, accurate and fast access to knowledge content, is carried out using metadata derived from standardized and controlled vocabulary. These standard metadata are the result of the scientific community and its subject matter experts. Based on the traditional approach of knowledge organization and retrieval, there is a duality between information and knowledge and human beings, and knowledge organization as objective and neutral descriptions of a already there universe of knowledge. This notion of objectivity and neutrality was falls with the rise of postmodernism. In the postmodern view, facts, truth and knowledge is regards as constructed in a particular discourse community. Postmodern theory, therefore, is the organization of information as the active interaction of human beings with concepts and information to construct systems of knowledge organization. Therefore, the rules, guidelines, and standards for organizing information are less interested, and what is important is the dynamic interpretation of the texts, and hence the dynamics of the content structure and the interpretive process in the knowledge organization. In the field of Islamic sciences, this is especially important because Islamic texts, such as the sources of the Qur'an and the hadith sciences, are the basis of religious law and the ethical and religious foundations, and the precise and accurate organization of these sources results in a proper retrieval and in the result, will be correct religious, ethical, and religious law.
