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!
