Team Leader Digitization of the League of Nations Archives

lieu de travail : ville + département: Geneve, Suisse
 

Introduction et contexte: UNOPS will provide support to UNOG Library’s Digitization of the League of Nations Archives project, through the provision of services, which includes procurement and personnel support.

While the inherent value of the original materials necessitates provisions for their long-term physical care, digitization can contribute to the overall preservation of the collections to ensure that people from around the globe can discover, use, and learn from these important records.

Pour cet épisode spécial Documation, nous nous sommes penchés sur une autre grande tendance de l'année 2024 : la cybersécurité, et plus particulièrement la sécurité dans le domaine de la gestion des données. La protection des données contre les menaces internes et externes est non seulement cruciale pour garantir la confidentialité, l'intégrité et la disponibilité des données, mais aussi pour maintenir la confiance des clients. Julien Baudry, directeur du développement chez Doxallia, Christophe Bastard, directeur marketing chez Efalia, et Olivier Rajzman, directeur commercial de DocuWare France, nous apportent leurs éclairages sur le sujet.
