Launch of H-MUSEUM
H-NET Network for Museum Professionals
http://www.h-museum.net

H-MUSEUM (ISSN 1618 - 0534) is a moderated mailing list and information
forum. This means that texts are reviewed by an editorial panel, revised if
necessary and only then transmitted. The manager of the list will ensure
that the contents meet academic standards and prevent their use for
commercial, non-academic or non-relevant purposes. The editorial team is
supported by an advisory board. The mailing list addresses themes and
questions primarily relating to museums and memorial places, but is also
intended to be interdisciplinary, so that archaeological, historical,
cultural and artistic information can be posted alongside other more
established, central spheres of activity. Articles relating to the
activities and news of archives and libraries will also be listed. A
particular feature is the emphasis on museums and the internet. You will
also find accounts and discussions of exhibitions, reviews of books and
other communication media, as well as reports of conferences and calls for
papers. Subscription applications are solicited from scientists in museums,
universities, libraries, archives and other academic institutions, as well
as from graduate students of the arts, cultural sciences, museology and
history. The languages are mainly English and German, but Italian, French
and Dutch too.
