Members of the Data Standards Group are cordially invited to a general meeting
of the Group on 21 November 2007 at the British Library.
We are delighted to welcome as our guest speakers, Nick Poole, chief executive
of the MDA, and Amy Warner of The National Archives. Nick will be speaking
about current developments in museum documentation standards and the
potential for collaboration in data standards between the museum and archive
communities. Amy will be discussing the current project to develop name
authority files as part of the National Register of Archives. I am sure both
talks will be of considerable interest to our members
In order to plan refreshments and as places are limited, could members please
let me know if they would like to attend.
