As a recent art history graduate and museum intern I have been invited by the company to help create a museum exhibit for the conference that will portray how assistive technology has progressed within the past thirty years. I have about thirty items or so to work with but I do not need to use all of them. The exhibit space is 40' x 40'. The general goal is to create somewhat of a timeline, where people would be able to walk around and actually use the equipment that is on display. Culminating at the end of the timeline would be the state-of-the-art technology that is currently in use. Much of my preliminary research has been done through various google terms. What I am asking the listserv is for knowledge of anyone who has worked with assistive technology exhibits, or technology in general, and possible ways that you have curated your exhibit. I am not looking to steal anyone's creativity, but I am curious to see what others have worked on since this is an area that does not get much attention in museums.

Hi David,
I looked into several medical museums, such as the one we have right here in
Indianapolis, but the difference between their museum and my visions for the
exhibit is that the museums are using historical buildings or areas to
portray their items. I'll be working in a convention center that will
resemble nothing of the sort. I'm looking for more of a children's museum
approach where people would be able to look around and actually use the
equipment on display (I know, totally not something I am used to as an art
museum intern).

First of all, this is not an agreement related to credit from the student's institutions. when necessary, that is handled separately. I have found that most students' sending institutions don't require any formal paperwork for summer internships, even in some of the major graduate programs. Though they may require work from the student to document the internship, in five years of having more than 35 interns, I've only had to become involved in credit arrangements for four of them. It seems as though the academic-year internships which are done in conjunction with a specific course outline require this more often than the summer internships, which are often elective or at least informally managed. The agreement, instead, is one between our institution and the student. It is a single document which clarifies all the plans we have made after their application was accepted and formalizes their intent to join us and stay through the term of the internship. It helps us feel the process is complete and that I, the student, and their direct supervisor all have the same information. So the agreement is a simple Word template, printed on our letterhead. We customize it for each student, print two copies on letterhead, and send both to the student with an acceptance letter. The student sends bak the two signed copies, then I sign both copies, and we return one to the student while keeping the other for our files. The form has the following fields: Intern Name: Museum Department: Department Supervisor: [who will be responsible for the intern] Internship Start Date: Internship End Date: Credit or Other documentation: [describe] Housing arrangement: [if museum is providing] Stipend: [if offered] Responsibilities and projects: [quick description of specific projects or tasks expected to be part of the assignment] Schedule: [outline expectations of days, hours to be worked, and any days off the intern has requested in advance, or holidays given (such as 4th of July, in summer) Simple as this is, it becomes the one-stop, one-page reference for all the questions people normally have about interns before they start! I think it also assures the interns that they've had a formal intake of some kind. Hope that helps! ========================================================= Important Subscriber Information: The Museum-L FAQ file is located at http://www.finalchapter.com/museum-l-faq/ .

First of all, this is not an agreement related to credit from the student's institutions. when necessary, that is handled separately. I have found that most students' sending institutions don't require any formal paperwork for summer internships, even in some of the major graduate programs. Though they may require work from the student to document the internship, in five years of having more than 35 interns, I've only had to become involved in credit arrangements for four of them. It seems as though the academic-year internships which are done in conjunction with a specific course outline require this more often than the summer internships, which are often elective or at least informally managed. The agreement, instead, is one between our institution and the student. It is a single document which clarifies all the plans we have made after their application was accepted and formalizes their intent to join us and stay through the term of the internship. It helps us feel the process is complete and that I, the student, and their direct supervisor all have the same information. So the agreement is a simple Word template, printed on our letterhead. We customize it for each student, print two copies on letterhead, and send both to the student with an acceptance letter. The student sends bak the two signed copies, then I sign both copies, and we return one to the student while keeping the other for our files. The form has the following fields: Intern Name: Museum Department: Department Supervisor: [who will be responsible for the intern] Internship Start Date: Internship End Date: Credit or Other documentation: [describe] Housing arrangement: [if museum is providing] Stipend: [if offered] Responsibilities and projects: [quick description of specific projects or tasks expected to be part of the assignment] Schedule: [outline expectations of days, hours to be worked, and any days off the intern has requested in advance, or holidays given (such as 4th of July, in summer) Simple as this is, it becomes the one-stop, one-page reference for all the questions people normally have about interns before they start! I think it also assures the interns that they've had a formal intake of some kind. Hope that helps! ========================================================= Important Subscriber Information: The Museum-L FAQ file is located at http://www.finalchapter.com/museum-l-faq/ .

Dear colleagues,
Apologies in advance for cross-posting the following. Please feel free to distribute this message as needed.
As you may have already heard, the new Paleontology Research Center at the South Dakota School of Mines and Technology is under construction. This is an exciting time for us and all our colleagues. You can follow the progress of the building at
http://sdmines.sdsmt.edu/cgi-bin/global/a_bus_card.cgi?SiteID=422389#x (overview and link to building information)
http://sdmines.sdsmt.edu/cgi-bin/global/a_bus_card.cgi?SiteID=422855 (live cam on construction)
This will be the first time that all the SDSMT Museum of Geology collections, laboratories, library resources, archives and other records will be under one purpose-built roof. We are looking forward to serving as a regional curation resource, education center and repository for many years to come.
As part of this effort, we need to impose a moratorium on loans from and research visits to our collections for two years, starting on August 1, 2009, and ending on August 1, 2011. This is necessary for our collections packing, inventory, and reconciliation of records during the move. We will not be able to facilitate collections access during the moratorium without special approval and advance arrangements. At this time, all loans from SDSM collections that have not been renewed in writing are now due and should be returned to us as soon as possible. We will be reviewing all loan and borrow records and will be returning all materials on loan to us that are not in active use.
If you have or know of SDSM materials (specimens, books, field notes, and/or other archival materials) that should be returned, wish to donate materials connected to the history of the museum and its research, or need to notify us about materials on loan to SDSM that should be returned to you, please contact me off-list at the address below. If you have particular research needs that need to be addressed during the moratorium period and wish to make arrangements in advance, please let me know as soon as possible.
We appreciate your understanding and patience during this transition period, and hope to see many of you at our official opening.

Sorry for such a simple question.
I have a student who is interested in publishing about her work in
developing our Museum Education Program. I am looking for some smaller
journals that would be good for her to publish. The current proposed title
is "How to create an outreach program with minimal time and effort". The
audience would be for small to mid-size museums. Does anyone have
suggestions?
Thanks in advance!
Thanks,
Susan

Sorry for such a simple question. I have a student who is interested in publishing about her work
in developing our Museum Education Program. I am looking for some smaller
journals that would be good for her to publish. The current proposed
title is “How to create an outreach program with minimal time and effort”.
The audience would be for small to mid-size museums. Does anyone have
suggestions? Thanks in advance! Thanks, Susan +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Susan Fishman-Armstrong Laboratory Coordinator Antonio J. Waring, Jr. Archaeological Laboratory University of West Georgia Carrollton, GA 30118 678-839-6303 (office) 678-839-6306 (fax) www.westga.edu/~ajwlab/

Please excuse cross posting.
For an exhibition next January, the National Portrait Gallery is hoping
to borrow a Ferus type silkscreen by Andy Warhol of Elvis Presley. It
must be smaller than 82 inches wide to fit the particular gallery for
the exhibition so a double or small triple portrait would be ideal.
We have made contact with the Andy Warhol Museum, Seattle Art Museum,
Akron Art Museum and Virginia Museum of Fine Arts all of which are
unable to lend. Does anyone know of a public or private collection in
the United States - preferably east of the Mississippi - that might be a
good source for this piece?
Any assistance would be appreciated.
