Digitization is a key process in preserving, protecting and providing continued long-term access to archive materials. The competencies required in digitization pose challenges to individuals and organizations engaging in digitization activities. We take a competency mapping approach to support digitization skills anticipation. Current and anticipated digitization competencies in public and private organizations in Finland were surveyed using a digital preservation competency framework. Results show that organizations see digitization requiring a wide set of competencies ranging from policies and legal issues to practical organization and technical delivery of digitization. There is anticipated need to optimize organizational and service capabilities in near future. The desired target state is quite advanced overall, regardless of current capabilities. The largest self-identified competency gaps exist in strategical and technical approaches to digital archiving and digital access to archives. Our results inform continued professional development and planning of future digitization efforts.
