Dear recipient,
The stored collections of UK museums as a public resource
---------------------------------------------------
We are contacting you to invite you to participate in this research project. It is being undertaken from University College London Museum Studies, and supported by the MLA, the mda, the Museums Association, the National Museuim Directors' Conference, ICON, and other bodies.
We would be very grateful if the relevant person for the museum receiving this email, with knowledge of the collections and their users, could complete the questionnaire at the following web address:
http://opinio.ucl.ac.uk/s?s=696&i=9093&k=Xort&ro=
The deadline for completed questionnaires is 11 am on Monday 11 June.
We want to answer questions that we are sure interest you, too: What is the scope of the non-displayed collections? To what extent are they used, by whom, and for what purposes? What can be done to promote better use? Results will be published and presented at a conference in 2008.
There is further information about the project on this website:

Thank you in advance for contributing to this important project,
Suzanne Keene Alice Stevenson
