There’s a lot going on at the museum, and we think you should know about it. This blog will show museum-work-in-progress, opening a window onto the museum’s operations, letting you look behind the scenes. Come here to see the exciting memos debating what the museum should be doing, our ongoing, not-very-successful, experiments in putting collections online, and ideas for programs as we develop them. University museums should be teaching institutions in all that they do. We teach about anthropology and culture in our exhibits and programs. Here, on this blog, we teach about museums.
