Back when I had planned to do a thesis for library school instead of the culminating papers (even suffering through the required research methods class as the prereq), I was planning to write about library/museum collaborations and do a nifty case study of all the amazing libraries and museums here in the San Jose area (having volunteered for four years at The Tech Museum). Saw this blog today: museums and libraries:
This blog will discuss the many relationships that have existed between museums and libraries and new ones that are now emerging. Its main focus will be on why these dynamic associations were created, the tremendous positive impact that they have had on society, the significant need for them to continue to work together, and the challenges that they face.
