New archivist role for the Project
Jason Mazzocchi is our recently appointed project archivist for the Lossenham Project and other projects of the Janus Foundation. His duties involve the creation, storage and maintenance of all records for the projects and the Foundation itself. These records include the notes from archaeological work and cultural events, agendas and minutes of meetings, permanent records of archaeological finds, and also artworks and other output from the activities falling within the Foundation’s scope. Additionally, the Foundation Trustees will be providing their own regular reports to Jason, which he will collate and distribute to all Trustees.The archivist also acts as librarian for the rapidly growing book collection, which is intended to be made available to the community, ultimately as a lending library. The library will also host a collection of academic and other articles of relevance, both in digital and physical form, as well as classified research and reference reading lists. Jason will be the point of contact for academic and other enquiries about the projects and their activities.The library and records office is located at Lossenham Priory Farm and will be open for telephone enquiries (on 01580 493230) and visits on Tuesday and Thursdays between 9.30am and 3pm. Alternatively, e-mail enquiries can be directed to archivist@janusfoundation.org
