**Dear Cultural Heritage Professional
**
**The University of Sheffield and partners in the EU-funded PATHS Project
are developing a new system for exploring and re-using information held in
digital cultural heritage collections. Details of the project can be found
here http://www.paths-project.eu/.
**
**We have reached the second prototype stage and would like to invite
curators, archivists, educators and other CH professionals to take part in
a user study. The study aims to evaluate the system developed to date, and
to generate feedback and ideas for future developments.
**
**If you or any colleagues would be interested in taking part, please get
in touch. In brief, each study will last for approximately 2 hours, and
will take place at the Information School, University of Sheffield, Regent
Court, 211 Portobello Street, S1. All information collected via the study
will remain completely anonymous and will be handled in accordance with the
university's Research Ethics policy. Travel expenses cannot be paid, but
each participant will receive a gift voucher as a token of appreciation for
their time given.
**
**Sessions are available daily until 12th July. For more details and to
book a time, please contact Paula Goodale at the email address given below.

**Kind regards
Paula Goodale
