Contributors

This page lists the individuals, archive services and archive projects which have contributed terms to the UK Archival Thesaurus.

Please note that:

• (1) No details are provided of contributors who have specified that their contribution should remain anonymous.
• (2) The fact that a contributor is included on this page does not necessarily mean that all of the terms submitted by them have been edited. Terms which have been entered into the UKAT database, but which have not yet been edited, are listed in the Candidate terms pages, along with their contributors.

List of contributors

Contributors are often identfied in UKAT by an acronym or other abbreviated form of their name, which is typically the acronym used by the archive repository or project. In the 'Source' part of the main display of each term (see the Main term display help page), the acronym will sometimes be combined with another abbreviation indicating the origin of the term submitted by the contributor, if the term was taken from another subject vocabulary rather than being created by the contributor. For example, 'AIM25/HACT' indicates a term submitted by the AIM25 project which was taken from the Australian Health and Aged Care Thesaurus, while 'AIM25' indicates a term submitted by AIM25 which was created by the project itself.

You can search for terms submitted by these contributors using the Advanced search form, which allows you to filter by term source. You can either select a contributor from the drop down list of sources (which contains the most common sources of UKAT terms), or you can select 'other source' from the list, and enter the contributor's displayed source value in the box underneath. For further information, see the help page on Searching UKAT.

In some cases, contributors in the following list will have submitted terms via the project's website. The source which is displayed for terms submitted by web contributors will be determined by the contributor's name publishing preference (on name publishing preferences, see the help notes in the Contributor registration page). For web contributors who have not opted to be anonymous, the displayed source value will be either the contributor's personal name, or the name of their organisation.
