It has seemed to me for some time that we, in the Museums Community, need a place to record announcements about conferences, workshops, training, etc. While they are published to the list, sometimes they're harder to dig out in the archives. But if you had a place where just those types of announcements were published, it might make for readier reference. I have been cross-posting job announcements that come out on this list to MuseJobs (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/MuseJobs ) and will try to do the same with announcements I find in the future here so that they are recorded on MuseAnnounce. But feel free to post to either forum yourself as a secondary way of reaching a targeted audience. In order to post or read announcements on MuseAnnounce, go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/MuseAnnounce I sometimes think that, when the announcement first comes out, there's time left, and you may think, "Oh, that's nice, maybe I'd like to go," but you put off the decision and then later have a hard time pulling up the info. I think this may make a more convenient portal. By the way, I have left the attachments option open on MuseAnnounce so that, if you have a flyer for your event, you can either send it as an attachment, or, in the alternative, you can upload it to the Files section. (Go to the home page above and select Files.) Hope this helps. ===== Indigo Nights [log in to unmask] Looking for a job?
