Curator
A curator (from , meaning "to take care") is a manager or . Traditionally, a curator or keeper of a cultural heritage institution (i.e., gallerymuseumlibrary or archive) is a content-specialist charged with an institution's collections and involved with the interpretation of heritage material. The object of a traditional curator's concern necessarily involved tangible objects of some sort - artwork, collectibles, historic items or scientific collections. More recently, new kinds of curators have started to emerge: curators of digital data objects and biocurators.
