''' | '''Genealogy Society of Norway - DIS-NORGE'''. <br>DIS-Norway is the country's largest association for genealogists, with nearly 9000 members. DIS-Norway was founded on January 12, 1990. The association's mission is to create a nationwide forum for family and personal history in which data processing and the Internet are used as aid. It's mission includes spreading knowledge about this effort and encouraging genealogical research in Norway. | ||
We have 19 sections which cover all the country's counties. All members are affiliated with a section. Members in these sections coordinate the local activity of the association. They organize meetings, evening workshops, and courses. Those activities that take place in each section are announced on the home page for the individual section. Most sections have begun with listing of grave sites and parish registration. This is a huge volunteer activity that is done so that we all are able to obtain easier access to the sources. | |||
Much of our activity is based on the Internet and electronic mail (e-mail). Genealogy Forum and DISchat are services that allow contact between the members and where answers to questions about computing and genealogy can be obtained. | |||
Our membership magazine, Slekt og Data (Genealogy and Data), is a magazine with a variety of content that will be of interest to all genealogy and local history enthusiasts. The magazine is published four times a year. Members can read all past issues on our website. Besides the activity on the local level the Society has a board that is elected at biennial congress. The association office is located in Oslo where it shares office space with the Norwegian Genealogical Society. This office locale is called Slektforskernes Hus (Genealogists House) and is staffed by an office manager and two part-time employees. | |||
DIS-Norway has two subject areas, one for the internet and one for related genealogy study activities. In addition, major projects are established as needed. Current projects are "Gravminner i Norge" (Grave Stone in Norway), DIStreff (DIS meeting), Parish Register, and "Create Genelaogy Books". Often working groups are established for more limited initiatives. | |||
Currently, a group is working on establishing ethical guidelines for the association and for related research activities while another group is working on recommendations to genealogists for bequeathing research materials. | |||
We are affiliated with two of Norway's cultural heritage associations, Norges Kulturvernforbund and Folkekulturforbundet (FOLK). We have good cooperation with the National Archival Services of Norway (Riksarkivet). We work together with other Scandinavian genealogy associations through Nordic Genetic Research Resource Center (NORDGEN).<br> | |||
