DİJİTAL KÜRATÖRLÜK: KAVRAMSAL BİR DEĞERLENDİRME

“Dünya dijitalleşiyor” fenomeni günümüzde bilginin yönetsel süreçleriyle ilgili her aşamasını derinden etkilemektedir. Dijitalleşen dünyada bilgi profesyonellerinden beklenen, geleneksel mesleki işlevlerinden bilginin koruyucusu olma durumunu, dijital bilgilerin kalıcı olarak korunması ve yeniden kullanımı için de gerçekleştirmeleridir. Bu beklentiyi karşılayan uygulamalar dijital küratörlük süreçleriyle sağlanmaktadır. Yaşam döngüsü boyunca dijital verilerin muhafazasını, erişilebilir olmasını, yeniden kullanılmasını ve değerinin korunmasını sağlayan dijital küratörlük, dijital dünyanın anlamlı veri dağlarının gelecekte de yaşatılmasını öngören çabaları içermektedir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, bilimsel ya da kültürel miras ürünlerine ilişkin veri yaratma çabalarını tekrarlayan süreçlerden arındıran dijital küratörlük kavramını, temel özellikleri ve dijital bilgi yönetimi süreçleriyle olan ilgisi bağlamında değerlendirmektir. Çalışmanın, dijital küratörlük becerilerinin mesleki eğitim süreçlerine adaptasyonuna dikkat çekmesi ve konuya ilişkin literatüre katkı sağlaması beklenmektedir.

DIGITAL CURATION: A CONCEPTUAL EVALUATION

Nowadays, “Digitating World” phenomena deeply affect every aspect related to management processes of information. In digitalized world, information professionals are expected to actualize the position of being protectors of information, which is one of their traditional functions, also for permanently protection and reuse of digital information. Applications, which meet this expectation, are practiced via curator processes. Digital curator, which has been ensuring digital data to be protected, accessible, reusable and maintaining its own value, also contains efforts predicting digital world's meaningful data mountains to be sustainable in the future. Here in this study it is aimed to evaluate the concept of digital curator, which puries the efforts of creating data related to scientic or cultural heritage products from the repetitive processes, based on its relation with basic specications and digital information management processes. The study is expected to draw attention to the adaptation of digital curator skills to the vocational education processes and contribute to the literature on the subject.
