Informationsmanagerin gesucht – Die Rolle wissenschaftlicher Bibliotheken in der Forschungsberichterstattung in Deutschland.Petersohn, S., & Thiedig, C. (2022).Informationsmanagerin gesucht – Die Rolle wissenschaftlicher Bibliotheken in der Forschungsberichterstattung in Deutschland. ABI Technik, 42(1), 70-77. Abstract
Whilst libraries have already developed new specializations as curators of research data, we ask which role the collection and processing of research information will play as a research support service in academic libraries and how this affects their task and competency profiles in the future. Based on an analysis of job advertisements for the years 2005 to 2020 and an online survey, we identify formal tasks and competency requirements as well as current task profiles and perceived areas of competency. |
