Last year I wrote about our own plans for implementing Freedom of Information and also about the different ways we are supporting government departments, records managers and archivists across the country in their preparations to implement the Act. This year I am Chief Executive’s glad to report that although the start of Freedom of Information brought us an unexpectedly high foreword number of enquiries – well over 1,200 – we dealt with more than 99 per cent of them within the To the Right Honourable the Lord Falconer of required timescale, thereby proving in practice the rigour of our Thoroton, Lord High Chancellor of Great Britain carefully planned new procedures.

  • A History of the British Library Slavonic and East European Collections: 1952-2004
    A History of the British Library Slavonic and East European Collections: 1952-2004 Milan Grba Preface The purpose of this article is to provide an introduction to the British Library Slavonic and East European Department oral history interviews project. The project was carried out over two years, and nineteen former Slavonic and East European department staff took part in it in 2011 and 2012. The material from the oral history project and description in more detail can be accessed via the British Library Sound and Moving Image Catalogue (http://cadensa.bl.uk/cgi-bin/webcat) as the entry ‘the British Library Slavonic and East European Oral History Interviews’. This article is limited only to information that has not been discussed in interviews or published in previous research on the British Library collections.1 It draws on two main sources of information. The unpublished primary sources which were consulted are held in the British Library Archives in the DH 2 series and the published sources were derived from P. R. Harris, A History of the British Museum Library, 1753-1973 (London, 1998).2 The British Library staff office notices were also consulted for the period 1973 to 2000, but this period is examined to a lesser extent. This is partly due to the information already provided in the interviews and partly to the time limits imposed upon the research for this article. Much more attention is needed for the post-1973 period, and without a full grasp and understanding of the archive sources it would be not possible properly to assess the available information held in the British Library 1 Such as P.

    THE PUBLIC RECORD OFFICE. Janet D. Hine. (This paper was delivered by Miss Hine · at the last Association Conference.) I am very happy to talk to you tonight about the Publio Record Office in London. Introduction. There is no doubt that we are greatly indebted to this institution, for its example and for the way it has preserved quantities of the. source material of Australian histor,y. But in any case I feel a personal sense of gratitude to it because, I must guiltily admit, I. have spent some of the pleasantest and strangest hours of my life there. All this in spite of being quite literally allergic to it, or at least to its dust. Perhaps that added to the strangeness. The Joint Copying Project. From 1954 to 1957 I was in London, seconded to the office of the Agent General for New South Wales, to do work for the various departments of the Public Library of New South Wales. As I shall mention again later, I had several enquiries to make of the Public Record Office on behalf of the Archives Department, and I also used it to settle some comparatively small and self-contained queries sent from home and others rising out of the interests of the Agent General 1 s office. But by far the longest and most consistent · association I had with it was in connexion with the Joint Copying Project. This, as the present audience will doubtless know, is an · arrangement whereby the Commonwealth National Library and the Mitchell Library, in co-operation with the other State libraries of Australia, are having original overseas material of Australian and Pacific interest searched and copied for the use of students in this country.

  • Inter Departmental Archives Committee Action Plan On
    Inter Departmental Archives Committee Government Policy on Archives: Action Plan Foreword from the Keeper of Public Records In my capacity as Chair of the United Kingdom Inter-Departmental Archives Committee (IDAC), which I chair on the behalf of the Lord Chancellor, I am pleased to present the Action Plan to accompany the Government Policy on Archives (Cm 4516, December 1999). The Plan, which has been the subject of extensive consultation, is intended to provide a general framework for the activities of the leading archive bodies, both inside and outside Government, towards achieving the high-level outcomes set out in the main policy document, over the next three years or so. As well as the relevant Government Departments, Resource (the Council for Museums, Archives and Libraries), the National Council on Archives (NCA), and the Association of Chief Archivists in Local Government (ACALG) will all play a major role in the Plan's implementation. IDAC's secretariat will regularly monitor and publish progress against the agreed action points set out in the Plan. Shortly after the Plan was approved at official level, Baroness Blackstone, Minister of State for the Arts, announced on 12 July that the functions of the Public Record Office (PRO) and the Historical Manuscripts Commission (HMC) are to be brought together in a single new organisation, called the National Archives, which will come under the Lord Chancellor. This will come into effect on 1 April 2003. In the Action Plan the PRO is designated the lead body for objectives 3 (records and archives management in the public sector) and 5 (the archiving of electronic data), while HMC is the lead body for objective 4 (promoting standards in private archives).

    THE COLONIAL OFFICE GROUP OF THE PUBLIC RECORD OFFICE, LONDON WITH PARTICULAR REFERENCE TO ATLANTIC CANADA PETER JOHN BOWER PUBLIC ARCHIVES OF CANADA rn~ILL= - importance of the Coioniai office1 records housed in the Public Record Office, London, to an under- standing of the Canadian experience has long been recog- nized by our archivists and scholars. In the past one hundred years, the Public Archives of Canada has acquired contemporary manuscript duplicates of documents no longer wanted or needed at Chancery Lane, but more importantly has utilized probably every copying technique known to improve its collection. Painfully slow and tedious hand- transcription was the dominant technique until roughly the time of the Second World War, supplemented periodi- cally by typescript and various photoduplication methods. The introduction of microfilming, which Dominion Archivist W. Kaye Lamb viewed as ushering in a new era of service to Canadian scholars2, and the installation of a P.A.C. directed camera crew in the P.R.O. initiated a duplica- tion programme which in the next decade and a half dwarfed the entire production of copies prepared in the preceding seventy years. It is probably true that no other former British possession or colony has undertaken so concerted an effort to collect copies of these records which touch upon almost every aspect of colonial history. While the significance of the British records for . 1 For the sake of convenience, the term "Colonial Office'' will be used rather loosely from time to time to include which might more properly be described as precur- sors of the department.

    1 COMMUNITY CHORUS PROJECT, KIDZU CHILDREN’S MUSEUM & UNIVERSITY PLACE PRESENT A HOLIDAY SING ALONG! Conducted by Caroline Miceli & Accompanied by Scott Schlesinger JINGLE BELLS A pair of hopalong boots and a pistol that shoots Is the wish of Barney and Ben; Refrain: Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way Dolls that will talk and will go for a walk Oh, what fun it is to ride in a one horse open sleigh Is the hope of Janice and Jen; Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way And Mom and Dad can hardly wait for school to start again. Oh, what fun it is to ride in a one horse open sleigh It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas ev'rywhere you go; Dashing through the snow in a one horse open sleigh There's a tree in the Grand Hotel, one in the park as well, Over fields we go, laughing all the way The sturdy kind that doesn't mind the snow. Bells on bob tail ring, making spirits bright. It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas; What fun it is to ride & sing a sleigh song tonight! (Refrain) Soon the bells will start, And the thing that will make them ring is the carol that you A day or two ago I thought I'd take a ride sing right within your heart And soon Miss Fanny Bright was seated by my side; The horse was lean and lank. Misfortune seemed his lot, Santa Claus is Coming to Town We ran into a drifted bank and there we got upsot.
