UCL Workshop on 'Barriers to Participation with Archaeology Online'
This UCL ACRN workshop was held on 22nd May at UCL Institute of Archaeology, and presentations were made by representatives from the Portable Antiquities Scheme, Archaeology Scotland, University of Edinburgh, English Heritage, UCL's Public Enagement Unit, and the UCL Institute of Archaeology.
- I wanted to try to include people unable to make the event on the day, so a Twitter hashtag & etherpad was set up, and Doug Rocks-Macqueen, one of the presenters, was kind enough to offer to video the presentations. When the links are available to these, I will add them below.

Welcome to the Portable Antiquities Scheme websiteWelcome to the Portable Antiquities Scheme website The Portable Antiquities Scheme is a DCMS funded project to encourage the voluntary re...- Sadly, there were a few technical issues...
- Dan's presentation was titled "Sisyphus and the troll on the gate of the digital divide".

- #digipubarch back is one of the most of the important things for a pubarch project to have
