Forth Coming Event, DEVELOPMENT OF ARCHIVE & SOURCES AND MONUMENT
TERMINOLOGY
Dear colleagues,
This short e-mail will describe the above project, it also outlines very
broad aims and key dates within the project.
This project is a joint initiative being run by The National Trust, English
Heritage (Data Service Unit) and FISH (Forum on Information Standards in
Heritage). I would like to invite as many people as possible to be included
in the development of these terminologies.
I am keen for the Peer Review to be successful and be inclusive as
possible.... It will be conducted from 29/11/2001-10/1/2001. All project
material will be made available during November.
It will include paper copies sent to all reviewers and for those of us that
wish to an e-mail discussion (open from 10/12/2001) will be available for us
all to discuss the draft terminology.
For those that wish to be involved I would be grateful if you could contact
me with your e-mail and hardcopy address by 19/11/2001 so I can draw up a
correspondence list.
I can be contacted:
