Since I’ve been on vacation the past week and am in the process of moving, this post will be rather short but hopefully informative and helpful!
I compiled this list of links for museum professionals over the summer, and I hope it helps others out there like me! This is not a comprehensive list by any means, but there is still some great information listed here.
If you have any comments or additions to the list, please comment or email me.
