Future upgrades

The intention now is that the website and Database will be updated every two months. Over the next few months further data will be added for Oxford, Lichfield, Ely, Salisbury, Chester, and Bath and Wells, and it is planned that a start will be made on releasing data for further dioceses, probably Lincoln and Winchester. At the same time enhancements will be made to the website.

Each upgrade of the Database will be announced on the News page of the website, along with details of what new data has been added.

CCEd Research On-line

The Project is pleased to announce that a new addition to the website that will be launched over the coming months: CCEd Research On-line. The aim of this initiative is to provide a forum, an on-line journal, for the publication of notes and articles that either draw on the materials made available by CCEd or relate in some ways to the concerns of the Project. We regret that the publication of the first contribution, a list of diocesan chancellors, has been delayed until the February upgrade.

The Project Directors, who will act as the editors of CCEd Research On-line, welcome the submission of articles, either short or long, from anyone interested in contributing to the discussion of the Church of England and its clergy in the period between the Reformation and the mid-nineteenth century. They are also happy to discuss ideas for articles with prospective authors. All contributions will be peer reviewed, and their publication will be announced on this News page at each upgrade of CCEd. Copyright will remain with the contributors.

Public launch of CCEd, 29 April 2005

The public launch of the CCEd took place in the Great Hall at Lambeth Palace on 29 April 2005. The pilot version of the Database, containing data for the diocese of Rochester only, has been withdrawn, and it has been replaced with a new public website. At the time of the launch the Database made available materials for the dioceses of Rochester (1540–1835), Sodor and Man (1660–1835), Oxford (1540–1736), Carlisle (1761–1835), and Lichfield (1540–1646 and 1760–1835), along with a little material for the dioceses of Ely (1660–1760) and Salisbury (1660–1760). Reference materials are available for Carlisle, Oxford, Rochester, and Sodor and Man.

New AHRC grant awarded

The CCEd has been awarded a further grant from the Arts and Humanities Research Council. This grant, commencing in March 2005 and running for three years, will fund the second stage of the Project. This will involve further processing of the data already collected in order to make it more accessible and comprehensible for users and also to facilitate complex statistical analysis.
