The current issue of Archaeology Ireland carried an article by Christine Baker entitled 'Digging Through the Downturn', offering suggestions and soliciting opinions on the future of archaeology in Ireland in the economic climate of the time. Alongside her own contribution, Christine included the thoughts of a number of archaeological professionals, including Rubicon Heritage Services Managing Director Colm Moloney.

A copy of the article was made available from the blog for readers interested in the wider discussion about employment, commercial archaeology and the future shape of the profession.
