초록

본 연구는 데이터사서의 주요 직무와 핵심 역량을 알아보기 위하여 75개의 미국 데이터사서 구인광고의 내용 분석을 수행하였고, 미국과 캐나다 현직 데이터사서를 대상으로 설문을 진행하여 105명의 응답을 수집 후 통계 분석을 진행하였다. 내용 분석과 통계 분석을 종합한 결과, 데이터사서의 주요 직무는 collaboration, workshops, trainings, conferences, data service, research consultation, 그리고 research support 관련 직무로 파악되었다. 핵심 역량은 communication skill, teaching, diversity, inclusion, and equality, data management, 그리고 data tool 관련 역량으로 나타났다. 본 연구는 가장 최신의 데이터를 이용하여 데이터사서의 주요 직무 및 핵심 역량을 분석하고 현직자의 의견을 수렴했다는 점에서 의의를 가진다. 이는 향후 이어질 데이터사서의 직무만족도, 이용자만족도, 인식조사에 기초연구로 이용될 수 있을 것이다.

To identify key job duties and core competencies of data librarians, this study conducted content analyses of 75 U.S. job advertisements of data librarians and statistical analyses of 105 responses from incumbent data librarians. As a result, the key job duties identified are jobs related to collaboration, workshops, trainings, conferences, data service, research consultation, and research support. Core competencies identified are communication skills, teaching, diversity, inclusion, and equality, data management, and data tool. This study is significant in that it analyzed the key duties and core competencies of the data librarians using the most up-to-date data and opinions collected from incumbent people. It can be a basis for future study such as on job satisfaction, user satisfaction, and perception surveys for data librarians.
