Presentation (20 minutes including questions) Session 1

Speaker

Jill Moretto (GSK)

Description

Archivists tend to come from a humanities background, meaning it can be difficult to understand scientific terminology and processes. This presentation discusses the approaches taken to interrogate the papers of one of GSK's most important scientists in order to appropriately catalogue and organise them, to make them available.
As a result of this project the GSK Heritage team gained valuable knowledge and created a "cheat sheet" of how to manage and arrange scientific papers for our collections.
