See Tower Design/Standards for more information. Web siteThe Guild maintains this Web site for the benefit of present and prospective members as well as the general public. It is organized into two separate but interconnected segments, as follows:
History of this Web site - Norman Bliss presented a pilot version of a proposed GCNA Web site to the 1996 GCNA Congress. After the Guild approved Norman's concept and general design, Wylie Crawford contracted for Web hosting services, and in December 1996 Norman installed the initial version of the Web site (the predecessor of today's Guild segment) for public access. Shortly thereafter, Carl Zimmerman added the initial version of the Data segment of this Website. These three people continued to be responsible for their respective areas, and formed the core of the Guild's Internet Committee during the succeeding years. From time to time, other Guild members provided assistance with subject matter. At the 2006 Congress, Norman expressed a desire to step down as Webmaster, and it was also decided that a new design for the Website would be useful. Norman continued to serve as interim Webmaster until the 2007 Congress, when Carl Zimmerman was appointed to carry on as interim Webmaster for the top-level section of the Website until the new design became available. Subsequent changes to this section were primarily for routine maintenance of the material presented to visitors. The present version of the Guild segment of this Web site was designed and developed by Dawn Daehn (2D Web Design), with advice and support from the entire Internet Committee. It superseded the previous version on 12 November 2008. Carl Zimmerman is now Webmaster for entire Website. Carillon DirectoryA printed Directory of Carillons in North America can be obtained from the Carillon Directory Committee. This pocket-sized leaflet is distinct from the listings which can be found in the Data segment of this Web site. |
The Bulletin contains scholarly articles, including formal reports of each annual Congress. It is generally published annually, though the schedule has varied somewhat in the past.
