MLAG has been through some significant changes in recent years and there are some challenging questions to be addressed about our future direction. As a member-led organisation it is vital that you attend our meeting on Friday 17 May, 14.00, at the Museum of London, if at all possible, as we need as many of your viewpoints as possible to enable us to arrive at a consensus on our future.
Hope to see you there,
Martin
The Arts Council funded project ‘Share Academy’ sought to broker collaborative relationships between museums and academics. This free symposium will provide an overview of the project together with a chance to network. Estelle Morris is the keynote speaker.
Dear colleague
As you may have seen on the museum’s website, the Caird Library at Royal Museums Greenwich will close from Monday 2 July to Tuesday 4 September 2012 inclusive due to the preparations and hosting of the London 2012 Olympic Games Equestrian and Modern Pentathlon events. For further information, please see the notice on the website.
We apologise for the inconvenience caused to our users. The Archive and Library staff will be using the closure period to rehouse offsite collections to bring them onsite, and to reorganise stores to make future retrievals more efficient.
The National Maritime Museum galleries will be open throughout the Games, with some changes to opening hours starting from 26 April. For further information see the visitor information on the website. Our special exhibition, Royal River, will also be open throughout.
We look forward to welcoming you to the Caird Library on Wednesday 5 September 2012 at 10.00.
