Hello, Ian
I'm replying to you rather than sending a message to the mailing list, because
I wanted to ask you what kind of discussions/messages you'd like to see on the
list? I'm not actually a member of the MCG myself, but would be happy to send
a message in the hopes of inspiring further activity! I have joined several
mailing lists, but it seems that all they ever do is notify members of
conferences (several times over) or engage in a little social chat. It would
be nice to have something meatier. Colleagues tell me that the most active and
useful lists seem to be those concerned with conservation and with the actual
mechanics (if that is the word!) of imaging - in other words those with
practical concerns.
Might there be a place for commenting on MoS and its use of computerisation?
Obviously many of your members won't have visited the new museum yet, but
something like the use of touch screens generally, which institutions seem to
use them most effectively/attractively etc could be a possibility? Or comments
on the use of computers in exhibitions.....?
Happy New Year!
Rosalind Marshall
