Records in Context - Compendium

The Records in Context - Compendium is a web-based resource designed to document the work of the ICA Experts Group on Archival Description (EGAD) in the development of the Records in Context - Conceptual Model (RiC-CM). As well as representing information drawn directly from the model, this compendium also contains higher level groupings to aid analysis and exploration, as well as resources and information regarding the history, context and evolution of the model. These latter entries do not form part of the formal RiC-CM.
