Thanks to the brilliant Tehmina Goskar for sharing

Thanks to the brilliant Tehmina Goskar for sharing her research @musecornishlife with the @cornwallmuseumspartnership Trainee Curators yesterday.

We had a fascinating insight into the origins of the social history collections @musecornishlife with a particular focus on the toys…

We had to wear all the hats in the @musecornishlife schoolroom too.

📚 B O O K C L U B 📚 Looking after collectio

📚 B O O K C L U B 📚

Looking after collections for future generations is a fundamental responsibility of a museum.

In our free and informal weekly ‘book club’, CMP’s Museum Development Officer will guide you through collections care topics using freely available online resources.

We will cover the basics of:

📚 Handling and packing
📚 Storage
📚 Environmental monitoring and pests
📚 Dusting and cleaning
📚 Marking and labelling
📚 Buildings and security

Starting Tuesday 14 June 2022: the club will take place weekly for five weeks via Zoom. Reading material will be shared and discussed the week after. There will be plenty of opportunities to ask questions, meet new people and share learning with your peers.

This series is an ideal introduction to collection care for:

📖 New or existing volunteers and staff without previous experience of collections care
📖 Existing staff or volunteers who want a refresh and a chance to talk about best practice

No prior experience or knowledge is necessary, but we do ask for your commitment to the whole series. You must also work for or volunteer in a museum in Cornwall.

♻️ For one week, we will each be counting our plastic to see just how much we are throwing away, to help gather evidence for @everydayplastic of just how bad the UK's plastic problem is.
