Dear All, I am very pleased to announce the publication of  "Building Trust
in Information:  Perspectives on the Frontiers of Provenance.²

The book reports on the results of an interdisciplinary and
multidisciplinary workshop on provenance that brought together researchers
and practitioners from different areas such as archival science, law,
information science, computing, forensics and visual analytics that work at
the frontiers of new knowledge on provenance. Each of these fields
understands the meaning and purpose of representing provenance in subtly
different ways. The aim of this book is to create cross-disciplinary bridges
of understanding with a view to arriving at a deeper and clearer perspective
on the different facets of provenance and how traditional definitions and
applications may be enriched and expanded via an interdisciplinary and
multidisciplinary synthesis. This volume brings together all of these
developments, setting out an encompassing vision of provenance to establish
a robust framework for expanded provenance theory, standards and
technologies that can be used to build trust in financial and other types of
information.

The book is available to order via:
