My work with SHIC

SHIC is the acronym for the Social History and Industrial Classification, a subject classification widely used by UK museums. I am a founder member of the SHIC Working Party which created the classification nearly 20 years ago and continues to develop it today.

In view of my long committment to SHIC, I have appended some information about the classification to these web pages. This has now been adopted by the SHIC Working Party as the official SHIC web site.
