Webinar: Introducing the new version of the Encoded Archival Context – Corporate bodies, Persons, and Families (EAC-CPF) standard
The Society of American Archivists’ (SAA) Technical Subcommittee on Encoded Archival Standards (TS-EAS), in collaboration with the Encoded Archival Standards Section Steering Committee, will be hosting a webinar in November 2022 to introduce the new version of the EAC-CPF standard.
Encoded Archival Context – Corporate bodies, Persons, and Families (EAC-CPF) is an international standard maintained by SAA for encoding contextual information about persons, corporate bodies, and families related to archival materials.
The schema and tag library are available on the EAC-CPF website:

Details of the revision process that led to the new version are also available on the EAC-CPF website:
