"The New Manual of Seismological Observatory Practice (NMSOP or \"the Manual\") is an \ninitiative of the former Commission on Practice (CoP) of the International Association of \nSeismology and Physics of the Earth Interior (IASPEI). At its meeting in conjunction with the \nIASPEI General Assembly in Wellington, New Zealand, January 1994, the CoP established a \nWorking Group on the Manual of Seismological Observatory Practice. Peter Bormann agreed \nto chair the group. A first concept for the NMSOP was put forward at the General Assembly \nof IASPEI�s European Seismological Commission (ESC) in Athens, Greece, September 1994 \n(Bormann, 1994). At subsequent meetings and through correspondence, Working Group \nmembers were found, willing to contribute major chapters, topical sections or complementary \nannexes to the Manual. Over the course of time the original conception of the organization of \nthe Manual evolved, in response to the material that authors actually provided. The authorship \nitself changed as well, as some people dropped out and replacements emerged. This has \ndelayed the completion of the NMSOP. In support of the NMSOP the Manual Working \nGroup organized six open workshop sessions in conjunction with IASPEI and ESC \nassemblies, with oral and poster presentations as well as Internet presentations of the Manual \nwebsite under development. The history of the Manual and its forerunners, the activities of \nthe Working Group, as well as the scope, philosophy and expected outreach of the NMSOP, \nare outlined in more detail in Chapter 1. In total, 40 authors and contributors from nine \ncountries have collaborated in producing about 1250 pages of new drafts (see list of authors \nand contributors). These were reviewed extensively both within the Working Group and by 35 \nexternal reviewers from 10 countries. Thus we hope to have produced a Manual that will be \nconsidered useful not only for the daily work of personnel at seismological observatories and \ncenters for data analysis, but which may also find interest in a broader context of education in \nEarth sciences and training at universities and secondary schools."^^ .
