Sorry folks little old ladies keep giving my phone number to other little old ladies, they then invite me round for tea to waste my time listening to the diabolical conditions that have been imposed on their building fantasies by persons unknown whilst keeping hold of my fascinator.
ShadowJack many apologies on the name changes, mostly generated by closing my eyes and hitting the keys, often meant as an act of endearment but which does appear to constantly backfire. I suppose that it comes across as identity theft. OooOOOH. I like your attitude to copyright and would like the same attitude to my artwork/context sheet. I get a similar feeling of annoyance when curators tell me what an archaeologists has to do. As Martine Locock has pointed out there appears to be a catch 22
If your archive is not deposited there it's not an archive.
and presumably it follows that if an archive is not deposited the archaeology has not been done and the person who did not deposit the archive is not an archaeologist. The paradigm appears to be that until the archaeology can be observed as an archive- it isnt archaeology. What ever it is (Prince Charles). Now a scheme of works sets you out to achieve an archive.
We could turn this round and say that whoever holds the archive is a museum.
In the PSS5 fantasy world ?museums? will store our worthless archive for ever at what cost no questions are asked. How did the PSS get away with that then. Yes the ?curators? love whatsoever record that results from their conditions- must be real valuable archaeology- because they made you put it in the big museum. And Oh someone has to pay for the privileged to store the archive there.
They have ?closed? two museums recently round this way (thats what happens in the bad times). When will the museums put their prices up, more to the point if my archive is so valuable why dont they buy it from me. They dont seem to have any problem buying stuff from metal detectorits
Good idea odin, everybody else is charging students. I bet the students are charged for library services and I dont notice any journals being free. How do the on line versions work? I suppose if its considered not for profit they can get away with it, but somebody around them will be looking to make a ?reasonable profit?. Shall we ask the ordanance survey (who I always thought were originally dictated by statute to map ?antiquaries?-somehow without statute passed it on to nobody called RCHNE who promptly forgot how). What is the boundary between not for commercial gain and research, for instance as a self employed archaeologist could I undertake a Phd and claim it as a legitimate business expense..

?Yes there is the CLA sticker concept http://www.cla.co.uk/licences_available/library/
what the diggers need is to be registered with such schemes?.. maybe an organisation representing diggers should set one up?.
