Announcing:
The Society of American Archivsts' Encoded Archival Context Working Group
(EACWG) is very pleased to announce that the Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin
(Berlin State Library) and the Bundesarchiv (German Federal Archives) have
agreed to jointly serve as the official maintenance site for Encoded
Archival Context (EAC) starting in 2008. Overall responsibility for EAC
maintenance and developmnet will be share by the SAA EAC Working Group and
these two institutions.
While the Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin and Bundesarchiv will jointly
administer the official web site for the EAC standard, the site will be
hosted by the Staatsbibliothek. The site will provide access to the schema,
tag library, and other official EACWG documents when the revision of EAC is
complete. While the revision is underway, the site will provide progress
reports.
The Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin and Bundesarchiv will announce the release of
the site and its address in early 2008.
