2024-05-24 15:22:41 +0000 UTCThank you for highlighting the importance of museum work and what we choose to remember. I actually went to grad school for archives. A couple of my classmates also had museum studies degrees. Admittedly, there was a lot of spreadsheet tracking where I did my internships, for all the other standards/programs I actually learned about in the classroom. There were no positions open when I graduated so I eventuality pivoted to corporate librarianship.
