Actually, the Smithsonian's National Postal Museum has no IT staff
whatsoever. What we do have is myself - a curator who trained herself in
basic html language to try and get a website going. We use contract tech
staff for everything else (from staff computer issues to exhibit work). We
recently got enough money to actually have the website professionally done,
which is almost finished. But we'll still be left with no IT person on
staff.

The Smithsonian has a Chief Technical Officer with an Central IT staff.
Each museum has some type of IT unit.  The National Air and Space Museum
has a top notch IT division that manages all areas of IT--servers,
computer
purchases, internet, email, helpdesk, and, new this year, the Voice Over
IP
phone system.  Call Chris Pratt, our LAN manager, 202/633-2310 or email

I am interested in identifying museums in the
Philadelphia-Baltimore-Washington, D.C. area that have IT
staff/departments.  What duties do these people have within their
institutions in terms of overall planning/administration as well as tech
support?  Who would I contact to find out more?

Please reply on or off list.  Thank you!
