Multi-Lingual interpretation in Musuems
By missclaire, Section Discussion
Posted on Sat Jan 6th, 2007 at 04:48:23 PM GMT
I am working at the Oakland Museum of California, helping conduct research as we plan to reinstall all of our permanent galleries. As our audience is quite diverse, we are looking for the best way to incorporate multiple languages in the new galleries. If you would please take a moment to share how your museum is addressing this same challenge, it would really help out. How is your museum providing interpretation in multiple languages - through wall text, audio guides, docents, or other? What kind of media or technological solutions are you using to provide interpretation in multiple languages? Are you using any non-language tools to interpret museum exhibitions? (interpretive dance, sounds, music, etc.) Have you seen other museums with innovative solutions to this challenge? Thank you! Claire Meyler Researcher, Oakland Museum of California

Hello to all, This is my first forum post and let me be honest, its been a delight to be in this place talking about antiques. I would like to invite you all to our museum website, Musee Asistica and would like you all to guide us how we can improve on our museum website since there is so much in our museum however very little on the web.

Awaiting your support
Sami

Cathartic nature of exhibitions - request for information
By hannah, Section Discussion
Posted on Tue Jun 27th, 2006 at 06:56:33 AM GMT
I am currently conducting research into the cathartic role of museum exhibitions that deal with tragic events from 1970 to the present day. I am particularly interested in the sociological, psychological and emotional reactions of the public to such exhibitions. I would appreciate any comments regarding such exhibitions and visitor responses, be it anecdotal, statistical or otherwise. Thank you

Gender Issues and Museum Websites - request for information
By jonathan, Section Discussion
Posted on Sun Dec 5th, 2004 at 11:46:45 PM GMT
A one-hour profession forum session on "Gender Issues and Museum Websites" is planned for the next Museums and the Web conference (Vancouver, Canada, 13-16 April 2005 - see www.archimuse.com/mw2005). A number of position statements are in preparation. We are seeking information on examples of good (and perhaps bad!) museum/cultural websites relevant to and about gender issues, or any other information that might be relevant (e.g., what specific issues should be discussed in the forum?). Currently we are planning to cover a number of different languages, cultural issues, technical aspects like personalization, accessibility, etc. Are there other issues that should be covered? What questions should be addressed by the forum? Please send replies directly to me (and to this list as well if you think they are of more general interest). I will collate these and distribute them to the participants in the forum. Many thanks in advance for your help in this matter.
