Just a note to clarify matters.
I know how to write admin/biographical histories with regard to
descriptions. I just want to know how big this is supposed to be -
obviously it will be more detailed (i.e. more wordy) than the factual
information I will use for the fonds level description, but how much so.
Should I just expand the information I gather for fonds/series level
description purposes - I'm trying to think in publishable (sp!) and public
terms - making it an interesting story as well as factual. Any idea of
length? Am I thinking it is harder than it really is then?!
Hope this clarifies my intial query. Thanks for info already passed on.
Ivone.
