Well, now that the article in Museums came out this month and people are asking me about this blog, I have decided that I better get my butt back in gear and start contributing.

Dedicated to new museum professionals to connect, share stories, and seek advice. Thursday, October 22, 2009. Is anyone out there? We haven't posted on this blog in forever!

Jobs have been cut, department budgets slashed, raises reduced or eliminated and in some extreme cases museums have closed. Have you fallen victim to any of these? How are you coping? But, I am sti...
