NOTICE
FOR SPRING MEETING OF THE LONDON REGION OF THE SOCIETY OF ARCHIVISTS
Date:
3rd February 2009
Venue: Huntley
Room, London Metropolitan Archives, 40 Northampton Road, EC1R 0HB
In
November last year the Society circulated to its members documents regarding
the proposed merge of the SoA, NCA and ACALG. In response to this the London
Region has invited representatives from the three main bodies as well as
Archives for London (AfL) to discuss what these plans mean for their
organisations and us the Society’s members. It is also hoped that members
will be keen to contribute to discussions regarding the future of the
sector’s professional bodies and what these proposals mean to us as
members.
Please
note: To ensure that members feel able to discuss this subject freely it is
proposed that the Chatham House Rule will apply:
"When
a meeting, or part thereof, is held under the Chatham House Rule, participants
are free to use the information received, but neither the identity nor the
affiliation of the speaker(s), nor that of any other participant, may be
revealed".
