The L&M of Freemasonry recently advertised this challenging position. The 
deadline for applications is being extended in order to raise awareness of 
this new, exciting project and to attract as many applications as possible. 

The post will involve managing a team of volunteer co-ordinators who will 
conduct a survey of Lodge and Chapter records in England and Wales. The 
results will be made available for future use by researchers via the L&amp;M 
website. The volunteer co-ordinators will be responsible for collecting 
information about the preservation and storage of records held by 
Lodges/Chapters using National Preservation Office models. This innovative 
project represents unique use of the NPO preservation assessment 
methodology among archives held by a private organisation. The Project aims 
to encourage good record keeping practice among Lodges and Chapters and, 
where possible, the deposit of older records with local record offices.

All those who have already submitted applications need not reapply - each 
applicant has been informed of the extended deadline, which does not affect 
the interview process or projected Project start date. 

Please pass details to colleagues without access to the ARC circular or to 
other suitably qualified individuals, perhaps experienced archive users, 
who can demonstrate research skills using original archives resources, the 
compilation of statistical data, report writing skills and experience of 
supervising volunteers.

thank you,
Susan Snell
Archivist and Records Manager
