Feeling Restless

The collections are getting restless…I am certain I hear whispering in storage when I wander back, sometimes I see movement out of the corner of my eye—yet no one is there… I think the collections have an “in” to the planning for new building and exhibit space. Both can mean chances to “show their stuff,” and elbow room in storage areas.

Co-workers are busily adding items to our on-line collections, both for the museum and archival collections. One can virtually explore so many artifacts, objects, newspapers, archival materials, and artwork, sort of like digging through the trunks in grandma’s storage space. Of course they are better in person, and better still when they are not restless.
