Dear all
Happy New Year!
One of my volunteers is about to embark on her dissertation for her MA in Museum Studies and would like to know if anyone would be willing to talk to her about disposals and rationalisation. If
you can help, please respond to Emily directly.
"Hi all, I am currently studying for an MA in Museum Studies and I am working on my dissertation proposal.
I have chosen to research and write about disposals and I hope to research the practice in small to medium sized museums, preferably in the North of England. I would like to talk
to museums about their attitude towards disposals, any data you may have (what, how, why it has been disposed) and if there any reasons or barriers to perhaps not disposing/not disposing as regularly for your particular museum. I am also interested in proactive
disposals and the reasons for this be it positive attitudes, policy, necessity, or a process always practiced at the museum. I will be gathering research around Spring 2020 and if there is anyone who would be interested
in talking to me about this topic and answering some question in spring time, I can be contacted via email at [log in to unmask]. Thank you."
Thanks
Leah
