I wouldn't want to be a member of any club which would allow me to join! Thank you David Evans Historic Environment Record Officer 01454 863649 >>> [log in to unmask] 12/12/2003 11:38:31 >>> .and there I was thinking that you were referring to Harpo's comments on the world of HER's ...parp! parp! Kev >>> [log in to unmask] 12/12/03 11:29:29 >>> Yes, that's it Kev. I believe that there is a reference on page 242 to information processing being the scourge of the working classes leading to the poverty of original thought, thereby playing into the hands of those whose sole purpose in life is world domination. Or was that the sequel, Duck Soup?

Bob -----Original Message----- From: Pratt, Nigel [mailto:[log in to unmask]] Sent: 12 December 2003 09:45 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: Various Issues Rachel I think what you are describing is an ALGAO Regional SMR Group, which exist in other parts of England. As I understand it, these groups are now expected to report to the main ALGAO Regional committees but do not operate along formal lines as yet. In addition, there is the national ALGAO SMR (HER) committee (I do not know how this group operates and the minutes do not appear to be available - I assume it is only for those invited to join). I would be very interested to hear from anyone who can explain how these groups all fit together. Outside of ALGAO there is the HER forum (still waiting to here whether this is for England only) and the HBSMR User Group (which is for those who have bought the Exegesis SMR software). There may be others I am not aware of!

In the SW, we have formed a local group who aim to meet up 2-3 times a year depending on subjects to be discussed and workloads. Do you have these groups in other parts of the country as well? It does allow some useful discussions, some of which do filter through to the whole forum, but we can also concentrate on more local issue which may not effect other people.

Its clear I'll never please everyone with the venue or timing of these meetings. Most responses have been from people who have attended meetings if not necessarily thins one, id be very interested to hear from those who rarely or never attend. I think sending a representative to at least one of the two meetings every year should be seen as an essential for the management of every SMR/HER/UAD. I don't consider that this is an unreasonable thing to suggest as it is important to bring the sector together to discus issues and hear presentations on recent developments, initiatives etc. Also the meetings should be seen as something which contributes to individuals CPD, I'm sure that all the employers of HER staff have a commitment to some form of CPD.
