@PietaGreaves @CranfieldHerCri Good for you. I hope you enjoy it. I went to a conference they ran last year and really wanted to change careers afterwards as I enjoyed it so much.

@PietaGreaves @CranfieldHerCri Pea green with envy. Sounds fantastic.

I suggest invisible ink of course.

So very true. If both sides are not benefitting it can't be a positive and sustainable relationship and structure long term. Such policies can help provide a framework for setting these benefits out. Let's have 'win win' as a goal, not 'win lose and resent'.

[International Council of Museums (ICOM) @IcomOfficiel]

The governing body should have a written policy on volunteer work that promotes a positive relationship between volunteers and members of the museum profession.

#CollectionsR22 @Durrant_Jenny You haven't missed out completely, you can see the conference presentations on https://t.co/anxVIXsdss which will remain up and available to all. We agree, one can never have enough rationalisation.

#CollectionsR22 I shall definately be using life time costings to look at the cost of holding objects. An excellent way of expressing collections care costs to other parts of the organisation. Thank you for the brilliant video Dr Cordelia Rogerson, looking forward to the panel.
