- Knowledge management has been developed in the context of enterprises and has its research and applications related to the organisational knowledge perspective. Nevertheless, there are other contexts within which knowledge management can be studied, such as the academic context, which is concerned with the scientific knowledge perspective. Whatever is the context in which knowledge management is studied, communication processes constitute a fundamental issue to be taken into account. As a matter of fact, the relationship between communication and knowledge management has recurrently been approached in the literature, under the technological perspective, having the processes themselves being apparently neglected. Within the academic environment, scholarly communication is also a crucial constituent of knowledge management. However, studies on scientific knowledge management that take account of the scholarly communication process are rare. This piece of research, therefore, aimed to investigate the relationship between knowledge management and the scholarly communication process at a conceptual level, bearing in mind the peculiarities of the scientific knowledge and the academic context. The study is particularly concerned with a theoretical construction of a conceptual model for the knowledge management in the academic context, having the scholarly communication process as its foundation. This theoretical, exploratory, qualitative research is based on the abducting reasoning and the evidential paradigm. Research objectives have been achieved through the combination of two different strategies. The first one consisted of the theoretical construction built upon the literature. The second, via interviews carried out with researchers from different divisions of knowledge. Based on the methods applied, it was possible to draw conclusions. The first one was to associate knowledge management principles to the communication process perspective, particularly to the scholarly communication process. The second was the identification of clues that point to the relationship between tacit scientific knowledge, explicit scientific knowledge and the creation of scientific knowledge in the academic context. The third was to identify the constituents of the knowledge management process within a university environment. The forth was to identify processes related to scientific knowledge management under the open access approach. From these results it was possible to build a conceptual model of the scientific knowledge management, on its tacit and explicit aspects, in the academic context
