> Hello all,
>
> I am doing research on the topic of museums and memory as part of my
> master's degree in Museum Studies. I am particularly interested in the role of
> personal and collective memory in history museums across the globe. How can
> objects, exhibitions, and programs inspire memory, imagination, feeling, and a
> sense of identity in museum visitors?
> I would greatly appreciate any information on personal experiences with
> exhibits or programs related to this issue. As well, if you can think of any
> relevant literature on this topic or other people interested in museums and
> memory, please let me know. Thank you very much for your time, and I look
> forward to hearing from you.
