Reminder: Introducing the new version of the Encoded Archival Context - Corporate bodies, Persons, and Families (EAC-CPF) standard

A reminder that the Society of American Archivists' (SAA) Technical Subcommittee on Encoded Archival Standards (TS-EAS), in collaboration with the Encoded Archival Standards Section Steering Committee, will be hosting a webinar in November 2022 to introduce the new version of the EAC-CPF standard.

Encoded Archival Context - Corporate bodies, Persons, and Families (EAC-CPF) is an international standard maintained by SAA for encoding contextual information about persons, corporate bodies, and families related to archival materials.

Join us on this upcoming webinar for an overview of the new version and a chance to ask questions about the changes and register your feedback. We will be hosting the webinar twice (presenting the same content at each webinar) to accommodate an international audience.

We have received feedback that there are areas where the sessions do not occur during working hours and are grateful for the interest; we hope to expand time zone coverage for future presentations and encourage anyone who cannot attend to submit questions through the form below.
