The Norfolk Archives and Heritage Development Foundation, with support from the Norfolk Record Office, has created a template accession form and instructions on how to use and amend it. We have also provided a template for an accession register. All documents are available as Google Docs. The accession register is also available as a Google Sheet. You can download each file in a variety of editable formats or can save a copy to your Google account (if you have one).
To download the document, click on the hypertext link. The Google Doc will open in your Internet browser. Click ‘File’ and then ‘Download’. You will be given a choice to download the file in a variety of editable formats, including Microsoft Word (.docx) and Open Document Format (.odt). For Google Sheets, the choice includes Microsoft Excel (.xlsx) and Open Document Format (.ods).
Alternatively, if you have a Google account, you can save a copy of the Google Doc to your Google Drive and edit it there. To do this, follow the link, click the ‘Sign in’ blue box on the top right of you screen. Once you have logged in, click ‘File’ and then ‘Make a copy’.
