<p class="MsoNormal">Hello, <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Please see below for a compendium of on-line courses in Museum Studies and Collections Management. This list is provided by the Society for the Preservation of Natural History Collections Professional Development Committee as a monthly

<p class="MsoNormal">Thank you<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-size:18.0pt">From Museum Study LLC<o:p></o:p></span></b></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">Join us for one of our 2 online professional development courses in February:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">Managing Previously Unmanaged Collections online course begins Feb 6 on MuseumStudy.com Join instructor Angela Kipp for the 4 week online course Managing Previously Unmanaged Collections. Working with a previously unmanaged collection
is one of the most challenging and rewarding projects in the career of a museum professional. Challenging because of the variety of issues like leaking roofs, missing documentation, and the question as to whether there is actually a floor underneath those
piles of objects. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">Rewarding because of the variety of new discoveries and the skills that are learned, along with the satisfying feeling of getting things done.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">The process of securing the collection and making it accessible needs the mindset of a collections manager and that of a project manager. This<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">4 week course helps you to get a grip on your unmanaged collection by developing a plan to tackle it, defining achievable goals by creating logical exits, and finding ways to keep the project going even if you are limited in time, staff
and money.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoPlainText">Keeping Historic Houses & Museums Clean 4 week online course begins Feb<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">6 on MuseumStudy.com<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">An unkempt museum or historic house is not appealing to the visitor nor is it healthy for the staff and collection. In this 4 week online professional development course instructor Gretchen Anderson will lay a foundation as to how to
clean objects and facilities safely. We will explore a variety of subjects, including health and safety for the staff and the objects, cleaning methods for a large variety of collection types common in art & cultural institutions and the importance of documenting
what you do.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">One former participant said, "This class was so helpful! This was such a great resource! For the first time since I started working here, my staff really seems to understand why I ask them to do what we do. It has really been the start
of some great conversations on site and we will 100% use the techniques learned."<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">Cleaning and sterilizing the museum is in the news these days. Once we get back in to our museums and historic houses we will need to be extra careful. Please join us for this timely class to look at methods to protect both the collection
and your visitors.<o:p></o:p></p>
