Apologies if you receive this more than once. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The SAA EAC Working Group is pleased to announce the release of the EAC-CPF schema and tag library. The EAC-CPF site is hosted by the Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin in partnership with the Bundesarchiv and is accessible at: http://eac.staatsbibliothek-berlin.de/ This release consists of a "final draft" version of the EAC-CPF schema and Tag Library. The final draft version is being released to provide the international archival community an opportunity to test the schema and review the Tag Library in order to provide corrections, comments, and suggestions for considering to the EACWG before the final release. The final draft version of EAC-CPF is available for review for 75 days (deadline October 30th, 2009), and the final version is scheduled to be released on November 15th, 2009. Please take the time to test the schema, review the Tag Library, and provide the EACWG with your findings. The final draft version of the EAC-CPF should be used for REVIEW PURPOSES ONLY. The Tag Library and examples are working draft documents and thus NOT NORMATIVE. The schema will continue to be revised to fix errors and inconstancies, and to refine controlled constraints on some elements and attributes. No major structural changes are anticipated. Please feel free to share this announcement with your colleagues In behalf of the EAC Working Group Lina Bountouri Archivist - Librarian, MSc Ionian University
