Please excuse any duplications from other lists on this
announcement.  We are presently looking for a manager of our
Network Communications Center at our New York Museum.

We hope to build an advanced technology program over the next
few years with fiber to the desktop, PBX telephone system and
Audio/Visual Switching from central sourcing to kiosks in the
exhibits as well as other capabilities.  Please pass this on to
anyone (or any list) you think would be interested. Thanks.

I expect to be at MCN at the end of the month,  and will try to
make myself available with additional information about the
program and some other positions in the offing.
