FIAT/IFTA World Conference 2024

Data Scientist, Data engineer, Community manager, AI Project Owner, Web editor, Digital Storyteller, Podcaster… Job offers with new job titles seem to pop up every day in the Archives world, and sometimes leave us perplexed.

The ultra-fast development of AI, yesterday analytical, today generative, the need to always create new contents to be visible and reach all audiences, the environmental challenges, the permanent renewal of uses and the technological transformations, create ever-new skills needs.

There is a growing convergence between archive, IT, journalism… It is an ongoing challenge for archive professionals, who must stay up to date, hire the right profiles, develop new professional cultures to dialogue with their colleagues and take - or keep - their place in this changing landscape.

What are these new jobs? How do they relate to the jobs we know? Will they replace them? How do they co-exist and collaborate? How do these new kinds of teams and work organisations work?

Part 1: Will they replace archivists and documentalists? Feedback of 2 professionals (AI product owner, Data Analyst…)

Part 2: Have they a place in archives? Feedback of 2 professionals (Officer for sustainability, Web editor or Community manager...)

Part 3: Exchanges Come and exchange with these new jobs professionals, share your experience, your challenges and your vision of the future during this interactive workshop.
