Hello EAD list, Some of you have received surveys on archival descriptive practices from me over the past few weeks (or days in some cases). This message is to those individuals who received surveys in this initial sample. There are two points to this message. First, the original due date was today (July 22) and I am extending the due date until August 5, 2002 due to mailing delays that affected many of you. Second, I want to encourage all of you to fill out the survey. Each response counts. Every effort has also been made to ensure that only one person per insittution received the survey. If more than one person in your instituion received the survey, the person most closely involved in the implementation of descriptive techniques should complete the survey. I realize that the survey is long, but I wanted to look closely at the dynamics behind the adoption and implementation of various descriptive techniques. And, this was difficult to do in a shorter survey. Your response is appreciated and if you have any questions, please contact me directly.
