They called for the strategy to be developed as a \u201cbottom up\u201d  strategy with considerable input from the \u201cusers and doers of heritage science,  so that the many institutions that play a part in the heritage science sector  can share a sense of ownership\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>This project has deliberately taken a  very broad definition of \u201cheritage\u201d which will encompass both movable heritage  (museums and art collections, libraries and archives) as well as immovable  heritage (archaeological remains, buildings, landscapes and  townscape).<\/p>\n<p>The strategy steering group are keen that as many people as  possible participate in the development of the strategy; each of the three  reports, and the final strategy will be made available through the website for  comment, (for more information, please go to <a title=\"http:\/\/www.heritagesciencestrategy.org.uk\/\" href=\"http:\/\/www.heritagesciencestrategy.org.uk\/\">www.heritagesciencestrategy.org.uk<\/a> ).

At this stage, we are collecting together  existing, relevant, UK and international heritage and heritage science  strategies and beginning the process of drafting the three reports. Please  contact the strategy coordinator Jim Williams <a title=\"mailto:NHSS@english-heritage.org.uk\" href=\"mailto:NHSS@english-heritage.org.uk\">NHSS@english-heritage.org.uk<\/a> with details of any strategy of which you feel we should be aware, or any  information you think would be useful in producing our three reports. In order  to avoid duplication, and paper or IT overload, we would be grateful if you  didn\u2019t send any documents, but just include details of the title, date, and  information about where a copy can be obtained. These existing strategies will  be listed on the website in the coming weeks and wherever possible, electronic  versions will be available to download.<\/p>\n<p>Link reference: <a title=\"http:\/\/www.heritagesciencestrategy.org.uk\/\" href=\"http:\/\/www.heritagesciencestrategy.org.uk\/\">http:\/\/www.heritagesciencestrategy.org.uk<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In 2006, the House of Lords Science and Technology Committee held an inquiry into Science and Heritage (for a copy of the report visit the House of Lords web page: www.parliament.uk\/parliamentary_committees\/lords_s_t_select\/heritage.cfm ) Among its recommendations published later that year was &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/?p=207\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-207","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-sector-newsblog"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/207","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=207"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/207\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":208,"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/207\/revisions\/208"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=207"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=207"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=207"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
