To complete the thought, in my earlier post I mentioned that the USGov had a much more complete taxonomy of job names. After that I did what I should have done first, and went and got the information. This - also Department of Labor - is the _Dictionary of Occupational Titles_, SUDOCS # L37.2:vols ( ) Unfortunately, I'm told that the multi-volume 1991 was the last; not just the last paper version, but the last last. Ironically, the derivative _Occupational Outlook Handbook_, SUDOCS # L2.3/4: ( )- which uses the _D.O.T._ taxonomy - continues. Of course, neither does compensation. I didn't look in _O.O.H._ for any museum job outlooks. I suspect that if college & university officials did, there would be a thinning of the ranks in museum studies programs.
