Dear all
As I am not sure how well the jungle telegraph/grapevine is working these
days, so I thought I'd let you all know that I'm leaving DSU for a while to
go on secondment to the University of London Computer Centre to take up the
post of Editor for a joint project between ULCC and the National Archives(or
PRO as it used to be called).
The project known as 'The Subject in Question' will involve the development
of a thesaurus to be used by the archive community, based on the UNESCO
thesaurus.
I will obviously be keeping in touch with m'learned colleagues and I don't
intend to leave the FISH list but my priorities for the next 13 months (from
June) will be archives not monuments.
I'm really looking forward to discovering what actually happens behind the
walls of these venerable dust filled repositories and working alongside the
archives community.
Phil
You can all stop laughing now and climb back onto your chairs
