Dear Colleagues
Just to say thank you again to all those who took the time
to answer the on-line questionnaire on the impact of capital investment in
archive services. Some headline figures were part of a presentation by
Wendy Walker to the AGM of the All Party Group on Archives at the House of
Lords this week. The AGM also gave me the opportunity to explain to the
APG the role of this research and the intention to develop a more detailed study.
I am now working on some more in-depth analysis which shall be presented by
Louise Ray to Fiona Talbot, Head of Museums, Libraries and Archives at the Heritage
Lottery Fund.
With regards
Elizabeth Oxborrow-Cowan
Consultant Archivist and Director of Communications for the
National Council on Archives
