NINCH "GUIDE TO GOOD PRACTICE" PROJECT SEEKS NOMINATIONS

As readers will know from the October 3 NINCH Announcement
<<http://www.ninch.org/PROJECTS/practice/press.html>http://www.ninch.org/PROJECTS/practice/press.html>,
the National Initiative for a Networked Cultural Heritage is producing a
Guide to Good Practice in the Digital Representation and Management of
Cultural Heritage Materials.
The Humanities Advanced Technology & Information Institute (HATII) of
Glasgow University was selected by the NINCH Best Practices Working Group
to conduct a survey of current practice in the cultural heritage sector and
write the Guide, in close co-operation with the NINCH Working Group.
HATII has now completed an initial survey of ten sites and, learning from
the experience of conducting these intensive interviews, the Glasgow-based
team is now engaged upon an extensive (though not comprehensive) survey of
exemplary sites in the US and abroad by means of face-to-face and telephone
interviews as well as via a web-page.
You are invited to nominate a production site (or project) you believe is
exemplary according to the evaluative criteria developed by the NINCH
Working Group (or indeed, by your own)--see
<<http://www.ninch.org/PROJECTS/practice/criteria-1.html>http://www.ninch.org/PROJECTS/practice/criteria-1.html>.
Please join us in making this as thorough a survey as we need to produce
the Guide.
Many Thanks,
David Green,
