Kirsten, in a case like this, you probably want to call or email their customer support to find out. I am not familiar with this program, but have always found customer support people who deal in museum stuff to be very pleasant and knowledgeable.

> DESCRIPTION OF POSITION: We seek a creative, collaborative thinker with a collection-based research program involving molecular approaches to studying avian systems. We are especially interested in candidates who use genomic tools and datasets in combination with innovative computational, ecological, behavioral and/or comparative approaches to address important biological questions ranging from the origin and maintenance of organismal diversity, adaptation to changing environments, and human health and disease. Areas of research interests include, but are not limited to: comparative genomics, landscape/population genetics, geographical ecology, global change biology, evolutionary genetics, and mechanisms of evolution. Preference will be given to biologists with a documented record of collections-based research in natural history who also clearly demonstrate cross-disciplinary research programs. A Ph.D., teaching experience, and field and museum research experience in ornithology are required.

A full-time collection manager is funded in this collection (50% collection, 50% Genetic Resources Core Facility), and a rotating graduate assistant appointment is assigned to the collection.
> GENERAL INFORMATION: The Sam Noble Museum is an organized research unit of the University of Oklahoma and is one of the finest university museums in the world.

> Subject: Communication Webinar - How to Get People to Read Your Reports
>
> Dusty discarded reports and dull dry presentations hinder evaluation use. No matter how rigorous the study or how fascinating the methods and results, evaluators and evaluation advocates often find themselves struggling with how to communicate in ways that are not only heard but understood and acted upon. Communication is key to evaluation use.
>
> Join Kate Livingston, founder and principal of ExposeYourMuseum LLC and program co-chair of the American Evaluation Association's Data Visualization and Reporting topical interest group, on Wednesday, August 12, at 3:00 p.m. ET for a 90-minute session on creative and compelling communication strategies for evaluation reporting, "How to Get People to Read Your Reports: Creative and Compelling Strategies for Effective Evaluation Reporting."
>
> From exploring the science behind visual communication and information retention to promoting simple and low-cost ways to communicate in compelling ways, this webinar will provide attendees with avenues to increase stakeholder excitement around evaluation reporting. Drawing on gurus like Nancy Duarte, Dan Roam, Nathan Yau, Stephanie Evergreen, Ann Emery, and Stephen Few, participants will examine visual and written communication from the perspectives of our intended audiences. What works? What doesn't? What tips and tricks can we employ right now, even with limited resources, to ensure better communication and encourage evaluation use?
