I subscribe to this list in order to glean information that might be
useful to me personally as well as those I serve.  The latter include
people working in local historical societies, museums, libraries, etc. as
well as students and others on the brink of entering the
museum world as volunteers and/or part of the work force.  I find such
announcements on the list quite valuable, and hope that others do too.
