Technologies have made it easy for individuals or families to generate and accumulate information collections with similar volume and complexity as institutional libraries or archives in the past. A survey was conducted to investigate people’s needs in managing and preserving personal/family information collections. The survey data show that many people have trouble in finding, sharing, preserving, and accessing personal/family information collections. Although some libraries and archives provide guidance, training, or equipment to assist people in managing and preserving their collections, very few people consider those services to be sufficient. These findings indicate an unmet need for a new type of archivists that serves the information management and preservation needs of individuals and families. This paper discusses mechanisms to develop a workforce of personal/family archivists and to match the supply and demand of personal/family archivist, as well as future work to further assess the need for shared personal/family archivists.

需要共享的个人/家庭档案管理员

技术使个人或家庭更容易生成和积累与过去的机构图书馆或档案馆类似的数量和复杂性的信息收集。进行了一项调查,以调查人们在管理和维护个人/家庭信息收集方面的需求。调查数据表明,许多人在查找,共享,保存和访问个人/家庭信息收集方面遇到困难。尽管某些图书馆和档案馆提供了指导,培训或设备来帮助人们管理和保护自己的馆藏,但很少有人认为这些服务就足够了。这些发现表明,对满足个人和家庭信息管理和保存需求的新型档案工作者的需求未得到满足。
