|---|---|---|
| Required Credentials | Bachelor's or Master's in Archival Science, History, or related fields | Master's in Library Science (MLS) or Library and Information Science (MLIS) |

| Industry Usage | Preserving historical records, managing archives | Managing collections, assisting library users, organizing resources |
While both Archivists and Librarians work with collections and information management, Archivists focus on preserving and maintaining historical records and documents, often in specialized environments like museums or archives. Librarians primarily manage library collections, assist patrons, and facilitate access to information in various library settings. Both roles require similar educational backgrounds but serve different functions within information management and preservation.
An archivist handles the collection and preservation of historically significant documents and artifacts. As an archivist, your primary responsibilities are to preserve and organize information of value to the public or your institution. Your job duties are to assess the value of particular records, describe and file an item within its historical context and preserve and maintain the collection of archives so current and future generations can access them. The information in a collection of archives may take many forms, including written documents, photographs, film, paintings, carvings, video, and digital media.
