February 2010: Medieval Britain and Ireland Fieldwork now searchable. The ADS, The Society for Medieval Archaeology and English Heritage are delighted to announce a new query interface for Medieval Britain and Ireland Fieldwork database. The on-line version of Medieval Britain and Ireland is a new venture for the Medieval Archaeology journal, featuring a searchable digital database for these annually submitted excavation summaries. The new database, commencing with reports from the 2007 fieldwork season, will link individual sites, through their OASIS identifiers, to the relevant records in the Library of Unpublished Fieldwork Reports, providing access to a wide range of data and grey literature.
