Survey on preservation of geoscience materials

The Geoscience Information Society, GIS, Preservation Committee is
conducting a brief survey in an attempt to gather information about
geoscientific material that needs preservation, as well as data
about the preservation activities at geoscience institutions or
institutions which collect geoscience information. The survey
inquires about the preservation activities occurring at
institutions, and the material which geoscience information
professions feel would benefit from preservation treatment. The
survey can be completed online at

    this survey by September 1, 1998" but I presume this is in error
