@TamsinRussell@cypriotartleeds Thank you! There's over forty of us and growing all the time!!
If you're not part of the SSN Consortium yet but want to be - just drop us a line!
Did you know that we’re one of almost 50 @SubjectNetworks in the UK? We all aim to provide advice & guidance about collections, acquisitions, preservation, access and research on specific subject areas - for us, performing arts heritage!

@nat_collection Would be useful to make contact with @SubjectNetworks which represents a unique sector support organisation with a wealth and breadth of specialist knowledge, experience, and skills across a wide range of subject areas and the UK’s largest collections support network.
As part of @archpress 'boundless creativity' we are challenging institutions to connect objects in your collections with others: #collectionsunited More information and examples here: https://t.co/oLiu4oUyCB
Below is an excellent example from @RBGE_Plant_Records
@SimonAStephens@MuseumsAssoc Thanks Simon! Good to know that subject specialisms are a specific focus of this activity. Would be great to see it more explicitly outlined as such an important element of curatorial activity and vital support. The SSN Consortium is always happy to help! #museums
@MuseumsAssoc brilliant to see the upcoming event examining curatorial practice! Subject specialisms are central but there doesn't appear to be any focus on how SSNs will be involved or are at the heart of curatorial practice. Is there a reason for their exclusion? #museums
#grateful to have met @SubjectNetworks today and thought about structures, governance and policies. Thanks for lots to consider #WorkhouseNetwork Also for trains running on time and good company on long journeys
@MrTimDunn Just think of all that information on railway museums that's just waiting to be discovered on the new @MuseumsMapping website https://t.co/n8vHLy2HkV
Not to mention the museums of boats, bicycles, buses and trams. @SubjectNetworks
