“Tackling Collections Backlogs for Small Museums” webinar

The Birthplace of Country Music Museum is hosting an American Alliance of Museums (AAM) webinar on Wednesday, December 9, 1:30—4:30 p.m. The free webinar, titled “Tackling Collections Backlogs for Small Museums,” is a wonderful professional development and networking opportunity for colleagues at local and regional museums, archives, libraries, and cultural institutions. It is especially geared to staff and volunteers working in collections-related positions in small museums.

The webinar will share ways to approach a collections backlog, prioritize tasks, and implement practical solutions; presenters will also discuss how tackling a collections backlog fits within an overall collections management strategy. Time for pre-webcast networking and post-webcast discussion will also be included.  Participants are also invited to tour the museum’s special exhibit, “Tennessee Ernie Ford: A Life on Stage,” for free after the post-webcast facilitated discussion.

There is no charge for this event, but attendees must RSVP through the AAM website (click Buy Tickets above to RSVP).
