Just out of curiosity (because I am still new to the museum field), what would such a list be used for?  Would it simply be useful in terms of research and knowledge, or could it be used for something else?
 
Thanks for your patience.

Subject: [MUSEUM-L] museum accreditation



Dear list:

 

Does anyone have a suggestion on how to determine which museums are AAM accredited and when each obtained the accreditation?  The best I can figure is to go through the directory and call each one; it seems like an insane process given that 21st century technology should be able to make it as quick as pushing a few buttons.  I have asked the AAM for a list but they don't release that information.  Will I have to sit down and do the weeks of research to get a read on who, what, when and why?

 

Thank you for your thoughts and help!
