Hi Keith,

You should bear in mind that not every HER sits in a town or city with a university library with a half decent archaeological collection. Leicester, where I work now does. Where I used to work, in Stafford, the nearest set of national journals was at Birmingham Uni. c.25 miles away.

Hi Nick,

A reply to your reply.  As regards "...the main issue is access - we 
don't have the funds to buy the journals so students with library cards 
and e journal access would be good."

I'd recommend that you get a free Inspire pass, which can be obtained 
through your local library with reference only access to specialist, e.
g. university, libraries.  See http://www.inspire2.org.uk/ which gives 
details of the scheme and the libraries in the scheme.

I've had no problem with it at Durham and Newcastle Universities, the 
Literary and Philosophical Society of Newcastle upon Tyne, for things 
I've not been able to borrow or see at The Society of Antiquaries of 
Newcastle upon Tyne and other local libraries.

Hope that helps,

Keith

Subj: Re: National Journals and HER Research

We don't routinely do this, but have been considering it as a part of 
the HER backlog.

I like Graham's idea of using students to do it, as the main issue is 
access - we don't have the funds to buy the journals so students with 
library cards and e journal access would be good

Its only a medium/low priority as I would hope that new sites in our 
patch would be found out about by us through the more local journals 
and other sources (but that may be naively optimistic...), and trawling 
national journals this would mainly be about adding extra sources to 
known sites. That is useful for more remote inquirers (they have more 
options to try and track down from afar, before having to come to the 
HER physically), but not critical in itself

A question back to Martin would be, I thought the NMR used to do this? 
Do they still?

If the NMR did, but stopped, it would be useful to know which Journals 
they trawled and for which dates, so HER's could concentrate on those 
not already looked at.

best wishes

A query came up as to whether HERs regularly trawl through national
journals (e.g. Journal of Roman Studies, Vernacular Architecture,
Industrial Archaeology Review etc) for sites and research relevant to
their geographical area. I was wondering whether list members had a 
view
on the usefulness and priority level this type of type of research.

Regards

Martin
