Hi All

 

Can anyone give me any advice regarding a request we recently received from Bournemouth Archaeological Investigations Project.

 

Bournemouth Archaeological Investigations Project has requested digital copies of all our 2010 archaeological reports. After querying this with my colleague we thought the email a little strange as the writer presumed we had recent advance knowledge of this project (which we hadn’t), although admittedly they noted they were running behind schedule. I found the website detailing the project http://csweb.bournemouth.ac.uk/aip/aipintro.htm  (the project was commissioned by EH). The 2009 data listed in the gazetteer contained summary of reports from our area, but in no way did the grey literature listed there add up to all the reports Peterborough received for 2009. Also the person who would have dealt with this at P’boro HER has since left. Hence our question – have you had any request for information (in the past or recently) and what % of reports did you provide (the majority of our reports are hard copy and they have requested digital copies). It would be helpful to know how other HER’s have approached this.   Thank you

 

Best wishes

Sarah
