Archivists and records managers are involved with the digitization and digital management of our records and cultural heritage in order to make documents and materials accessible online. In our digital environment, the role of the archivist and the records manager is becoming one. Record keeping is a continuum from creation through disposition, which includes both records management and archives.

iSchool faculty who teach classes that are part of the MLIS pathway of Management, Digitization and Preservation of Cultural Heritage and Records for a career pathway conversation share insights about their classes, career tips, and answer student questions about preparing for a career in digital archives and preservation.

Panelists include:

Jessica Bushey, Ph.D.

James Hodges, Ph.D.

Darra Hofman, J.D. Ph.D.
