La curation : entre usages individuels et pratiques professionnelles
Page 20-21
Résumé anglais The library and information science sector has over the last two decades been subject to a series of reassessments. The « culprit » is of course « digital technologies » that thanks to its armed wing Internet have infiltrated all sectors of professional and leisure activity in our society and rearranged the borders between public and private spheres and between the workplace and the home. The latest symptom is « curation » which in recent months has been the object of heated debate and discussion aimed at defining its relevance and legitimacy. It was fitting that Documentaliste prepare a detailed dossier bringing together numerous actors from a variety of backgrounds. Curation goes beyond the latest fad, inviting us to examine further than the « buzz » staring us in the face. Curation, born from a marriage of profane web use and « orthodox » professional practice, has drawn our attention to the fact that it is no longer possible to remain within familiar territory. The information professional must become an explorer; may our dossier be his compass! Whether it's the future of the web or just a waste of time, you cannot remain indifferent to curation. Person to person content-sharing constitutes a massive phenomenon that the information professional cannot ignore.
