Archivists may talk and think in things Jurassic, but that doesn't mean they cannot cyberspeak. Haven't you heard SEAPAVAA got a home in webspace?

Two websites, actually. The more recent is easier to remember; its internet address (URL or universal resource locator to the techno-geek) is "http://members.xoom.com/avarchives". The other address is "http://www.geocites.com/Hollywood/Academy/9772". The two sites mirror each other, except for some notices required by the site sponsors.

Here's a rundown on the contents of the SEAPAVAA's website:

Backgrounders - SEAPAVAA's brief history, objectives, officers (with nice photos!), memberships, committees, programs, and constitution and bylaws;

Membership forms - for individual and institutional memberships (applicants using Netscape can file the forms online, others have to print the form and submit via mail or fax);

Newsletters - the online version of SEAPAVAA's AV Archives Bulletin;

Foto albums - major events are featured (e.g., the fourth council meeting and the third assembly in Hanoi);

What's new - sundry announcements and bulletins.

For details and an actual feel, please go visit the websites. If a rose wilts to death when unseen by appreciative eyes, of what use is a website if unbookmarked in your browser? (vmg)
