The first message to archives-nra was posted on 24th February 1995-
four years ago today.
The list was established by Una O'Sullivan at the HMC to establish a
means of communication for the Archives and Internet Group- in
practice this meant mainly University archivists. It has become the
main discussion list for the UK archival community, with a few
international members. Membership now stands at 543 and is
increasing almost on a daily basis, as good an indication as any of
the way access to email is expanding across all sectors.. Average
number of messages has been 30 a month. The membership is very well
mannered and so the role of the owner is limited to electronic
housekeeping. Long may that continue!
