A2A Update, May 2003
The A2A database at www.a2a.pro.gov.uk was updated on Monday 12 May 2003. It
now contains more than 4.5 million catalogue entries describing archives
held in 322 archives repositories across England.
New catalogues this month came from three current projects - Agriculture and
Trade, Campaigning London, and Seven Ages of Man. The archives covered by
these catalogues include: correspondence and other archives of a number of
Catholic parishes in the Archdiocese of Birmingham (situated in the city of
Birmingham and throughout the Archdiocese from Coventry to Caversham), held
at Birmingham Archdiocesan Archives and submitted through the Seven Ages of
Man project; registers of 32 local Nonconformist churches and letters of the
nineteenth-century social reformer Octavia Hill, held at the City of
Westminster Archives Centre and submitted through Campaigning London; and
records of the National Farmers Union held at Reading University's Rural
History Centre, submitted through Agriculture and Trade.
This month's update also included catalogues of the proceedings and
consultations of the pre-independence government of India, held at the
British Library, and collection-level descriptions from the Yorkshire
Signpost project.
Staff have been appointed to work on three more A2A projects: Access to the
Crimlisk Fisher Archive delivered by Filey Town Council; and Aladdin's Cave
and Local Governance and the Community, two projects led by West Sussex
Record Office for the South East Region. Work is beginning on these projects
(which were described in a previous issue of A2A Update) this month.
Finally, planning for the development of A2A after March 2004 is continuing.
Some responses to the recently-issued position statement and call for
expressions of interest (now available at
www.pro.gov.uk/archives/a2a/a2apostmar04.htm) have already been received,
and the A2A Central Team look forward to receiving more.
A2A is the English strand in the UK archives network: its database at
www.a2a.pro.gov.uk already contains the electronic equivalent of over
400,000 catalogue pages describing archives held across England in national,
local and specialist repositories and dating from the 900s to the present
day.  The A2A programme will make a further 300,000 catalogue pages
available on the web by March 2004.
