We've got a chair, vice-chair, treasurer, marketing coordinator, surname index coordinator, societies liaison officer to serve until we are in a position to have proper elections (we still need more hands, particularly a membership secretary, so if anyone wants to step forward...). We're working on a constitution, then we can open a bank account, then we can start recruiting members. Meanwhile material is being compiled for the website, the first draft of which should be up within the next week or so. We are also sounding out various institutions about holding our yet-to-be-assembled research collection. So by our first meeting on 4 May we should be a fully fledged society. If you can hold on till then, maybe we can help you to obtain the films? You could be head of our transcription projects...
