Editor's Notes
- We’re now going to talk briefly about some of the things you need to know now you to help you to complete your CHG project. Do not let this picture cause you to panic.
- The CHG website should be your first point of reference for further information. I am sure it will be one of your bookmarks from now on. And you can always contact the CHG office- the contact details are on the website. For many of you starting out with Significance Assessments there is lots of information here for you in particular help on finding an assessor. That is your first job. Then go straight to the website to find out what you should be doing to prepare for the assessor. Your Significance Assessment should follow the format of as set out on the website, in your handbook and the extra copy we have put in your bags. Bright green. Similarly for Preservation Needs Assessments.
- A good thing to do is to read this book first, particularly chapters 4, 5 6 and 7 Easiest way to find it is by googling
- Here is just one of the many resources available on the internet about significance. For example in this video, Andrew talks about what their significance assessment meant for the National Vietnam Veterans Museum, whether it was undertaken at the right time, and how the findings are not always what the committee might want to hear.
- In the Conservation Activities section of our website there are many other useful resources and links. For example, you will find a link there to the PROV Just digitise it book which is in your bag. You can also watch the PROV Just digitise it video here. There is also a link there to the Digitisation of Heritage Materials Training Manual with additional technical information about digitisation. The presentations from this year’s workshops will be made available on the CHG website. You can find the 2013 presentations there as well.
- There is also a lot of information in your workshop handbook. On page 2 are the key dates to know for the CHG year. They are also printed on a separate piece of paper in your bag. I suggest you put them in a prominent place back at your organisation. I know we have them on a whiteboard in our office. Don’t forget you have contact details in the back of your handbook for your fellow CHG workshop participants who I am sure will welcome opportunities to keep in contact and share their knowledge and experiences. Of course you are welcome to contact the CHG office with your questions at any time.
- So it’s now time to get your skates on! Let’s think about those key dates of the CHG year.
- The first deadline will be the Progress report due on 27 April 2015.
- Just to remind you that reports are submitted online through SmartyGrants. It’s important for us that everything to do with your grant is attached to it in SmartyGrants. It’s our online filing cabinet.
- The Progress Report template will be very similar to this so you can see it is fairly brief. This report can only be accessed in SmartyGrants and must be submitted online with signed declaration form scanned and uploaded with the report. If you happen to have totally completed your project by 27 April 2015, then you don’t need to submit a progress report; the Final Report will suffice.
- If you wish to vary your project, please notify us! The CHG Coordinator must approve any significant alteration to the project before it is implemented.
- The next major deadline will be the Final Report. The hard work is done, the project complete. For Final Reports, please attach all receipts, sign the declaration form and include a copy of any reports or training materials commissioned with CHG funding. If you are completing training projects please include photos where possible with copies of training materials produced.
- When you log in to SmartyGrants you will see a form similar to the Progress Report but longer. Pay particular attention to this section where it lists what you need to do to fully acquit your grant. Don’t try to read them on this slide; they are listed on the next one.
- These are the things you will need to have completed in order to scan and attach them to fully acquit the grant.
- Some of you here today will be thinking you might like to speed things up a bit. Get on up that staircase! You might be thinking you would like to apply again in 2015.
- So Can you apply for a grant in 2015? Yes you can. If you wish to apply for a grant in 2015 you must have completed your final report and acquitted your 2014 grant by 27April 2015. So for example If your SA is done and acquitted by 27 April 2015 then you can apply for PNA or next stage in 2015. You will really need to get your skates on to achieve this. And we have Christmas as well. If you do intend to do this, don’t fall into the trap of being in such a rush that you do not take the time to consider the Significance Assessment report you have just had done.
- I have sent you all an email and I will ask you to complete our CHG Participant Feedback form. Suggest you do it with your workshop handbook beside you so you can remember the sessions you went to. We value your feedback and will use it to help us plan the program for next year.
- Our NLA Social Media coordinator has set the CHG ball rolling in social media and he will be telling us more about this shortly. Here you are on the National Library’s Facebook page!
- And here is a taste of what you may have already seen on your own organisation’s Facebook page and in Twitter where Liam has written a message to your organisations with a link to the press release and indicating what the award was for in their case.
- From the virtual to the reality of a fabulous CHG week. For me it has been a pleasure to meet you all if only briefly and I hope in future when I am a greyer nomad on the long awaited drive around the country that I will be able to visit some of your organisations. I would like to acknowledge Marg’s enormous contribution to CHG – 10 years . As you may be aware I am still new in CHG land and it has been fantastic to have such a brilliant organiser as my assistant. I am sure you would join me in thanking Marg who has kept you all on track this week and got you here and got you home again – even from as far as Norfolk Island Thank you all for being a wonderful group, your enthusiasm and interest has been very rewarding for us all at the Library and our partner organisations. Best wishes for a safe trip home and exciting times ahead.
