@thecwordpodcast Is that top tape one of the special ones for measuring the diameter of trees? Where you put the tape round the circumference of the trunk but the numbers give you the diameter without having to get all technical with pi?

Is it really the case that @MuseumsAssoc haven’t published sector salary guidelines since 2017? Are there other tools to advocate for better pay? Any suggestions @fair_jobs?

@museum_go I really enjoyed your Bulgarian-focused episodes - do you have any insights into the question below?

[CINE project @CINEprojectEU]

We've been chatting about different traditions of #community #coproduction with #museums & #heritage orgs in different countries & we're curious about eastern Europe-is coproduction part of museum practice? Is it valued? Who is doing interesting work that we could learn from?

[Dr Jo Clements @Historian4Hire]

Learning about cultural differences and community coproduction with museums & heritage orgs has been 1 of most fascinating things for me working on this project. Made me really think about conditions required for coproduction to flourish, now I'm curious about other places

Dear #museum twitter, do you allow commenting or other forms of publicly visible user interaction with your online collections? What are the benefits and challenges? Are interactions different to e.g. posting objects on twitter? Many thanks
