Hi all,

 

In the last few days I have mailed copies of the Master Plan to those
who expressed interest. Please let me know if you do not receive a copy
in the next 2 weeks or so. I still have copies if anyone else is
interested.

Fellow SISPA members,

 

It has come to my attention that the Government of Alberta's In Time and
Place: Master Plan 2005 For the Protection,
Preservation and Presentation of Alberta's Past was a topic of
discussion at the SISPA meeting in Fredericton. I am pleased to report
that the GoA is willing to send a copy of this publication to the first
50 SISPA members who respond to me with a mailing address. All mailing
costs will be paid by the GoA.

 

Here is a short review of the Master Plan from the Archives Society of
Alberta newsletter:

 

 "A NEW TOOL FOR HERITAGE PRESERVATION

In Time and Place: Master Plan 2005 For the Protection, Preservation and
Presentation of Alberta's Past, is the result of an
innovative process involving an archivist (Marlena Wyman), an historian
(Pat Myers), an archaeologist (Rod Vickers), an architectural historian
(Dorothy Field), and a heritage planner (Bill Tracy), to develop a
framework for diverse preservation activities. The book was developed to
help public and private groups involved in preservation activities
including building and augmenting archival collections. It uses a
thematic
framework, principles of preservation, worksheets, and numerous examples
and discussions to lead individuals and groups through their own
heritage activities. It argues for an inclusive approach to the practice
of heritage, and through both examples and narrative, encourages those
in the
heritage field (amateur and professional) to really examine the meaning
of concepts such as significance and preservation. It includes a CD with
printable appendices of the worksheets and other tools for use in
preservation activities. In Time and Place is a joint publication of the
Provincial Archives of Alberta and the Heritage Resource Management
Branch of Alberta Community Development. "

 

I hope everyone is enjoying their summer.
