O trabalho do bibliotecário, à luz da curadoria digital

Abstract

This article aims to discuss the role of librarians in the digital age, with an emphasis on digital curation practices. The advent of the information age has brought a new dynamic to the access, storage, and sharing of knowledge. In this context, the librarian emerges as a fundamental professional in the organization and mediation of information, acting as a digital curator. This paper will address the concepts of digital curation, the necessary competencies for librarians in this new scenario, and practical examples of how these professionals are adapting to new demands. In this context, where reading and study practices are essential, information retrieval is the crucial point. Keywords: digital curation; information mediation; information retrieval; library.
