Lucy, I agree wholeheartedly with you. I think I probably keep up more with what’s going on with the List than I do my personal Facebook page!
Best wishes to all Listers for a wonderful holiday season!
(Incidentally, I know Anne personally, she is an amazing Collections Manager and while her focaccia is incredible, beware her gingerbread. I’m pretty sure she puts opiates in it. There’s just no way it could be that good and addictive on it’s own accord!)

I sent a personal email to Anne, but it struck me that we have never before acknowledged how regulars on Museum-L feel a lot like family, and care for one another’s life struggles even though we’ve never met in person. Let this be a call to all who leave a museum job to stick with Museum-L from home. Even though I’ve been retired for about 9 years, I’m still volunteering in museums, and it’s so good to be able to feel I’m ‘keeping up’ with the profession. This seems like ‘social networking’ in a deeper, longer lasting way. I think some of us have been posting since the early 1990s……. I’ve tried other listserves and linked-in, but none are as rich as Museum-L.
To all Museum-L friends, “Have a good holiday season….. Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukah and a good New Year.

With apologies for serious cross-posting:
It is with sincere regret that I inform all my listserv colleagues that my employment as Collections Manager at the Charlotte Museum of History is coming to an end after nine years. I will, however, be re-subscribing (hopefully temporarily) under my civilian email – TGTH41 (at) gmail dot com. I don’t want to miss an instant of the knowledge, generosity, humor, and yes, quirkiness that I have enjoyed from all of you.
Meanwhile, (shameless advertising,) should anyone need a well-seasoned collections manager or registrar who writes well and has a pretty massive disaster plan and plenty of exhibit assistance experience under her belt, please let me know. I also make boxes. And mounts. And really good focaccia.
Happiest of holidays to all!
Anne
