Dear Colleagues: We are in the process of researching museum studies and would like your input. We have developed a 10 * 20 minute survey that is designed to help us answer these questions: How is Museum Studies defined? What are the key components of Museum Studies? Who are/have been the primary contributors to the field of Museum Studies? What are the key texts and theories within the field of Museum Studies? The survey can be accessed by following this link: http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.aspx?sm=k5u6OoJ3beS2Hql9hosPCg_3d_3d We appreciate your help with our study and look forward to finding out what you think regarding Museum Studies.
