Dear colleagues,

I have recently re-entered the museum job search arena, as well as re-
enlisted to the museum-L, and I have been shocked at what seems to be a
decrease in wages from 5 years ago.  Yes I do remember salaries being low
in comparison to work load and other professions, but they seem $5-8K less
than I recall.

I'm interested in hearing from any of you who have been continuously, for
the last 8-10 years, in hiring positions and can tell me if this is an
actual trend, or just sticker shock.

Thank you, Catherine Kenyon
