[open-archaeology] Get involved: OKCon 2011

[Daniel Dietrich]

Hello again-

Wanted to flag up an event this summer (from the brains of a couple of
Tweeting archaeologists) called "Day of Archaeology". The idea is (taken
from the website):

"The Day of Archaeology 2011 is an online project that will allow
archaeologists working all over the world to document what they do on one
day, *July 29th 2011*.  This date coincides with the Festival of British
Archaeology <http://festival.britarch.ac.uk/>, which runs from 16th – 31st
July 2011.

Archaeologists taking part in the project will document their day through
photographs, videos and written blog posts. These will then be collected on
this website, which will provide a glimpse into a day in the life of people
working in archaeology, from archaeological excavations to laboratories,
universities, community archaeology groups, education services, museums and
offices."


For more information on the event and on how to get involved, see
http://www.dayofarchaeology.com . This is intended to be a global event so
please feel free to spread the world on relevant email lists, and other
social media sites. And for all you tweeters, we are using #dayofarch as our
hashtag!

Cheers,
Jess
