TNA seeks new user group members

The National Archives at Kew, England, is seeking new voluntary members for its user advisory group. In particular, they are looking for the following categories to be better represented:

• academics - we are especially interested in hearing from historians, and those with links to one or more of the learned societies, and who are involved in encouraging post-graduates to work with archival material
• map room users - particularly those working with medieval records
• county/external archives
• on site personal interest researchers - particularly those interested in areas other than genealogy

The full story is at http://nationalarchives.gov.uk/news/965.htm
