Group members may be interested in a new report commissioned by Historic England from ALGAO entitled ‘Planning for Archives: Opportunities and Omissions'. The report is free to download from the Historic England website: https://historicengland.org.uk/images-books/publications/planning-for-archives/
This report was prompted by the 'Twenty First Century Challenges for Archaeology Project' - which among other challenges identified issues with Archaeological Archives - and by the Mendoza Review into museums. The report looks at the relationship between planning policy and archaeological archives.
It makes recommendations surrounding:
• References to archaeological archives in policy and guidance documentation
• Sharing best practice
• Digital Archiving
• Improving communication
Kind regards
