**#ARCSChat November 6**
When governmental budgetary constraints prohibited proper maintenance of
the facilities in Brazil's national museum in Rio de Janeiro, politics
collided with collections management in a very real way to disastrous
effect. In November 6th’s #ARCSChat, which will take place on Election Day
in the United States, we'll discuss this precarious intersection, identify
the problems, and discuss ways to manage our situations so that more
disasters can be avoided. Join us at 8 PM ET on Twitter-
