Hi everybody!

Terrilyn Chun here, your presenter from the Museum/Library Partnerships That Work! webinar.

Just a reminder to please share a brief description of your museum/library partnership here and (if you have them) links to websites or relevant documents. Also, if you can list contact information in case there are any follow up questions, that would be great!

And I'm happy to answer any questions about today's presentation or MCL's partnerships on this forum or you can e-mail me at terrilyn@multcolib.org.

Thanks!

Terrilyn

I was really hoping to hear about everyones partnerships, I hope more people start posting!  I'm not a librarian, I'm with the Space Science Institute in Boulder.  We're currently touring an exhibit called "Discover Space" in Colorado (http://discoverspaceexhibit.ning.com/)  This is the prototype for a larger, newly funded project called "STAR_Net" that we are developing in partnership with the ALA to get science exhibits (Discover Earth and Discover Tech) to rural and underserved libraries.  We're very interested in the opinions of librarians of science exhibits in their library, and any concerns they might have.  If you want to talk about any of these projects, you can contact me at aholland@spacescience.org  Great talk yesterday, we learned a lot! (For example, science book clubs, never thought of them! Genius!)
