Ok, I could ask actual people I know, but I'll throw this out here instead.
I know there is a great scene-setting piece out there that I can use for week 1 of my cultural heritage unit, but cannot find it or remember the details.
- Under 20 pages
- Summarises the history of western collecting institutions
- Opens up good first week (therefore also get to know you) conversations about why those institutions / collections / etc can be problematic.
Whatcha all got for me?

The reviews are in and we are really going towards a second edition of "Managing Previously Unmanaged Collections".
If there are #gaps in the first edition, please let me know.
Especially looking for real-world examples from #native and #digital #collections
Re-toots appreciated!

I am searching for people who have read "Managing Previously Unmanaged Collections" and have ideas what is missing or what should be improved.
Also looking for additional real world examples.
Boosts are appreciated!

So glad I could attend virtually the book launch for “Scotland's Transnational Heritage: Legacies of Empire and Slavery”. Insightful speakers and a very lively discussion about many issues related to this important topic. I’ve ordered me a copy of the book. https://edinburghuniversitypress.com/book-scotland-s-transnational-heritage.html #ScottishHistory #Scotland #Slavery #SlaveryHistory #BlackHistory #Empire #Colonialism #Museums #MuseumStudies #PopularHistory #PublicHistory #Books #BookLaunch #AcademicHistory #History #Heritage

Historically, recorded sound in museums has only been used to provide information about visual objects.
Our museum's objects are recorded sounds.

NYT ran this piece yesterday on museum collecting and the rising trend toward #Restitution. Featuring my #ColgateUniversity #MuseumStudies colleague Prof Liz Marlowe. “Today many U.S. museums are facing a reckoning for their aggressive tactics of the past.” https://www.nytimes.com/2022/12/13/arts/museums-looted-art-repatriation.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share&referringSource=articleShare

@emmanuel Looking forward to seeing the exhibition, hoping to bring a group of #JohnsHopkins #museumstudies students to visit in March.
@cgoodhistorian I work with social for #JohnsHopkins #museumstudies, and we are keeping an eye on this--I think museums will start to come over, and I think it will take some time as everyone tries to figure out which way the wind is blowing. @TheMuseumGuy @erodley @eemerritt thoughts?
About me: still surprised to find myself a #museumprofessional after 20+ years as archivist, curator, director, and now #museumstudies professor. But it's a good surprise. Field is complicated and flawed (as is every field); committed to honoring the complexities & working on the flaws.
Trained as French historian (cultural/gender/women's history, 1789 Revolution); now writing about what a painting's attribution can tell us about the meaning of #authenticity and the role of the #artmarket.

Curious about #mastodon, curious about @historians.social. Favorite things about the bird site: connecting with #museums & #history folks, learning from folks working in #provenance and #museumstudies. Here for what's next.
