Greetings,

I'm looking for examples of EAD-encoded finding aids that have been
encoded using either the beta or 1.0 versions of EAD. I would only need
one example per repository and plan to use these examples in an analysis
that will look for points of convergence and divergence in how archivists
are thus far applying EAD at the element and attribute levels.

Any finding aids used will only be analyzed as data and will not be
published or distributed in any other way. I would ideally like as diverse
a sample of EAD implementing institutions as possible.

Please feel free to reply to me personally and not to the list! If you
have a site from which I can download a .sgm file, you could just point me
to that site. If your site does some sort of transformation on the .sgm
file data, my e-mail system handles ASCII attachments pretty well so you
could just send the .sgm file as an attachment.

Thanks in advance for your assistance!

Bill
