Hello.  I am a masters candidate in Museum Studies.  I am working
on a class project that may turn into my thesis on Museums and
the Internet.  I would appreciate it if some of you could give
me your thoughts on this subject. Below are some questions
regarding the affect the internet is having on museums.  I realize
that everyone is busy, so please answer what you can. Thank you
for your time.

1 Have you seen any museum web pages?

2  Does your museum have a web page?

3  Is your education department involved with the web page?  If so,
   how?

4  Do you think virtual museums encourage or discourage visitors to
   the actual museums?

5  In your opinion, how much information or actual learning is
   getting across to the visitors via these web pages?

6  What do you think the effect the internet will have on museums
   in the future?


Thank you again for your help and if you have any other comments,
suggestions, or people to contact I would love to hear them.  Please
send responses to [log in to unmask]
