Hi Martha, At Joslyn, we record these numbers NOT as museum attendance - which is as accurate a count as possible of who entered the premises. We record these numbers for inclusion in our annual report - under Education (for outreach trunks, speaker's bureau, etc.) and under Exhibitions (for traveling exhibitions). (If you'd like, I can mail you photocopies of some pages from our annual report so you can see an example.) Best wishes, sincerely, Jay Heuman Visitor & Volunteer Services Coordinator Joslyn Art Museum > -----Original Message----- > From: Museum discussion list [mailto:[log in to unmask]] > On Behalf Of Martha Kolbe > Sent: Thursday, January 30, 2003 6:21 pm > To: [log in to unmask] > Subject: counting attendance > > Do you count attendance for programs that go out of your > museum such as kit programs for school classrooms? > Does anyone count attendance for their traveling exhibits > that go out? ========================================================= Important Subscriber Information: The Museum-L FAQ file is located at http://www.finalchapter.com/museum-l-faq/ .
