Ok, I've read where several of you need more information about fundraising. It was love of fund raising combined with a passion for museums that brought me to the list a couple of years. My question when coming was, would a museum be a place I might like to work for given that my particular talents lie in development. So I've been amassing links in that regard for quite a while and suspect I have a few things in my hat that could be of offer to you. I'm not going to organize these like Got Links. I'll just offer them, in the interest of time, as a hodge podge. If you are one of the ones who need help getting insights on fund raising, I'm sure you'll sift through these. Ready?
