What is the difference between Digital Archivist vs Digital Librarian?
| Aspect | Digital Archivist | Digital Librarian |
|---|---|---|
| Credentials | Master's in Library Science or Archival Studies | Master's in Library Science or Information Science |
| Work Environment | Archives, museums, cultural institutions | Libraries, educational institutions, digital repositories |
| Primary Focus | Preserving and managing digital records and archives | Managing digital collections and providing access to digital resources |
| Employer & Industry | Archives, museums, government agencies | Public and academic libraries, universities |
Digital Archivists focus on preserving and managing digital records and archives, ensuring long-term access. Digital Librarians primarily manage digital collections and facilitate user access to digital resources. While both roles require similar credentials and often work in related environments, their core responsibilities differ in focus—archival preservation versus collection management.

What Does a Digital Archivist Do?
A digital archivist works to preserve historical documents and materials or to organize and store digital materials for future use. Your duties vary depending on the purpose of your work. Some digital archivists work on digitizing materials like documents or photographs so that researchers can access them easily. Your responsibilities in this role involve converting materials into digital files. Other digital archivists work with videos, photos, and data that is already in digital form. In these cases, you record the media and file it according to a topic, keyword, and other identifying information. Digital archivists often have a degree in library science.

Job description
Location: Duluth & Suwanee, GA (Onsite, Full-Time)
Are you someone who sees the story in every document, photo, and file?
We're hiring an Archivist who brings equal parts of precision and curiosity. Someone who thrives on structure thinks critically and is excited to dig in and contribute to high-profile projects across a wide range of industries.
You'll join a passionate team redefining how history is preserved, accessed, and shared-through cataloging, preservation, digital platforms, and more.
Who We Are
At Heritage Werks, we believe every story deserves to be preserved and shared. We partner with world-class brands, sports franchises, fashion icons, and mission-driven organizations to safeguard their most meaningful materials and bring them to life in ways that inspire connection.
We preserve history. We protect generational legacies. And we do it all with care, purpose, and a forward-thinking approach. Our work honors the past while making it meaningful for today and relevant for the future, helping people and organizations celebrate where they've been and envision where they're going.
What You'll Do
As an Archivist, you'll work hands-on with legacy collections of all sizes. You'll collaborate with clients and team members to process, preserve, and unlock the value of historical assets through:
      Conducting collection assessments and content surveys
      Organizing and processing archival materials, both physically and intellectually
      Performing descriptive cataloging and applying metadata standards
      Writing clear, accessible finding aids and content inventories
      Recommending and selecting assets for digitization
      Applying preservation best practices
      Conducting in-depth research and distilling findings into concise briefs
      Learning client histories and championing archival recommendations in a consultative role
You'll balance speed and accuracy while navigating multiple projects, clients, and deadlines with professionalism and poise.
Requirements
What You Bring
You're detail-driven and deadline-ready. You thrive in a team environment but are equally comfortable working independently. You're naturally curious, highly organized, and passionate about preserving history in ways that are both meaningful and modern.
Qualifications
      3+ years of archival processing experience
      MLIS with Cataloging and/or Archives Specialization
      Certified Archivist (CA) designation preferred.
      Ability to lift up to 40 lbs and move materials as needed.
      Willingness to travel occasionally for project needs.
      Strong project and time management skills
      Willingness to work at any location of Heritage Werks as per business requirements.
      Excellent verbal, written, and presentation communication skills.
      Proficiency with Microsoft Office and familiarity with digital archival tools
      Self-motivated, results-oriented, and adaptable in fast-paced environments
Core Competencies      Client Orientation
      Accountability
      Results-Driven
      Focus on Quality
      Company and Team Alignment
