[Nhcoll-l] corona virus and museums

[Thiers, Barbara]

Dan Sullivan of cuseum (https://cuseum.com)  shared this with me today -- perhaps it will be useful to SPNHC members:

With the ever growing concerns around Coronavirus and its ripple effect on the global economy, many museums and attractions are wondering how they will be impacted.

We shared a blog piece yesterday titled "How Museums and Attractions are Preparing and Responding to Coronavrius.<https://t.yesware.com/tt/433605d709d4a90d75a5d919e889117f064f93e3/adb50e0c3db5c5d5d184dbd9b9e0b30f/3c4cf1212b412e613c7584fff5d9bd16/cuseum.com/blog/2020/3/2/how-museums-and-attractions-are-preparing-and-responding-to-coronavirus?utm_source=Dan&utm_medium=T1&utm_campaign=MAS&utm_term=march2020>" It has proven to be a useful tool in gathering information and putting plans together for hundreds of organizations in the cultural space. Several other museum associations including American Alliance of Museums and Museum Computer Network have shared this with their audiences, as the more information they have the more prepared they can be.

If you think this resource will be of interest to your community feel free to share it. Let me know if you have any questions at all!
