Dear List Members,

I am interested in expanding my skills in packing and installation/de-
installation (including mount-making). I've completed two internships that 
have given me the opportunity to do handle objects extensively and in one 
instance, packing about 30 lighting fixtures for a trip to the conservator so I 
feel like I have elementary experience. What I am looking for are short-term 
courses that would let me know how to work in AAM/AASLH standards so I 
might be eligible for an entry-level position using these skills eventually. I 
plan to purchase some texts that are published by both of those 
organizations, but I would really like to be learning from someone in person 
and I really don't think reading on my own is a replacement for that. I'm in 
the NYC area--can anyone recommend courses in this vicinity? 

Additionally, I would be interested in shadowing someone in the area as an 
intern/apprentice after June if anyone on the list has the name of someone 
who could use an extra set of earnest hands (or could use the extra help 
themselves). I would be happy to discuss this off-list and give further 
background about myself.

Thank you all for your valued input--
Jackie Killian
