Dear Colleagues, Please pass the information on our consultation meetings to anyone you think would be interested in attending. Have Your Say - Revised Regional Archive Development Strategy 2004-7 What do you think a regional archive strategy should be about? Over the last few months SEMLAC has been working on a draft revised Regional Archive Development Strategy 2004-7 "Relating Our Relevance" which is now available on the SEMLAC website http://www.semlac.org.uk/archives.html We want to hear from as many people as possible who are involved in using or working with, and for, archives in the region. We also want to celebrate the work that archives are doing in the region in the strategy and make it come alive. We need your help to do this. If you have a case study to suggest from your organisation, please take 5 minutes to fill in our case study template which is also available on our website as per the link above. To hear your views on the strategy, SEMLAC is organising a consultation seminar, one in each of the sub-regions of the South East. We hope many of you will be able to join us.
