A group of volunteers has now been assembled to work on the pilot. This is a regular, popular feature of TLIG conferences. Delegates are invited to bring along items of their local documentation which might be of interest to other sites. These are put on display for all to look at and delegates can fill in document request forms to request copies of any of the documentation on display. After the conference this subgroup collates and processes the requests.
Members participate by linking their local Web-based documentation to the archive.
Users of the archive are able to search across all participating sites for documents of relevance to their needs. In addition to setting up the archive, this subgroup encourages the use of the ucisa-tlig mailing list to discuss documentation and facilitate the sharing of resources. It is now common practice for members to contact the list before embarking on a new documentation project. Thank you to everyone who responded - I will summarize and post to the list for others in need. This handbook was produced by TLIG some years ago and was mounted in the Web at the University of Edinburgh.
