Surely the burning question at 15h45 on day one should be not 'Do paperclips comply with ISAD(G)?' but 'Do (the proposed revisions to) ISAD(G) offer a suitable metadata framework for paperclips?' Is there any chance of adding a poster session?

Subject: FDPFR Conference on paperclips and the user
‘Re-clipping the archive’: a reassessment of the archival continuum parallels of the paperclip and its relationship to the ‘hidden record’
FDPFR are proud to announce this groundbreaking symposium exploring the themes of paper connectivity through the use of brass implements. It looks at clipping throughout the ages and the challenges this presents.
· How do we understand the archival dynamics between clip and record?
· How do we discover user impartiality when assessing the dislocation of memory and identity through inadequate clipping?
· What does the future hold for the paperclip, as an abstract concept, in the digital age?
