Engaged Scholar Journal 1(1): 69-86.2368-416Xhttp://hdl.handle.net/10315/29459Knowledge mobilization seeks to identify and support authentic research collaborations between community and university so that benefits of the research accrue to both partners. Knowledge brokering is a key knowledge mobilization mechanism that helps community and university partners connect and build relationships in order to share expertise for mutual opportunity. There remains a need to describe in detail the typical knowledge brokering devices and methodologies. This paper presents a detailed description of York University’s knowledge brokering service which is based on eight years of knowledge mobilization practice. The process is broken into 5 broad stages: 1) in progress; 2) no match; 3) match and no activity; 4) match and activity; 5) match and project. Stage 5 includes a step to identify the non-academic impacts of the collaborative research project. This process is illustrated using examples from York University’s practice in which a match was brokered for 82% of the 342 knowledge mobilization opportunities received between 2006-2014. York University partners with United Way York Region (UWYR) to create a regional approach to knowledge mobilization supports. This paper illustrates the impacts on community and university knowledge mobilization partners following the introduction of a community-based knowledge broker at UWYR.enAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 2.5 Canadaknowledge mobilizationknowledge mobilisationknowledge brokercommunity campus collaborationengaged scholarshipresearch impactArticlehttp://www.usask.ca/engagedscholar/http://www.usask.ca/engagedscholar/documents/EngagedScholarJournal-Issue1-2015.pdf
