Topic: Brick Wall session

County of Interest: Buckinghamshire

The procedure to submit your brick wall is set out in the Guide to Brick Walls

We ask that your information be submitted by either PowerPoint (preferred option) or via a Word document - only one page in landscape layout - by Thursday 7th November. Once you have written out your brick wall question and set out the required information, take a step back and then come back to what you have written with fresh eyes and re-read as though you have never heard of or seen the information before. You may be surprised how much you may need to change to make the information logical and easy to follow for someone who has only seen it for 2 or 3 minutes. It needs to be clear, in date order and in dot form.  

We will have a couple of "more experienced researchers" have a look at the submissions prior to the meeting. This gives them time to consider what other resources may be available or possibly how someone may change their research techniques/protocols in order to break down a brick wall.

Note: If we run out of time to show your brick wall during the meeting, we will be circulating all the submissions to attendees after the event in the hope that one of the members can pass on some advice or tips to help you with your research.

This is an online session using the Zoom platform.
