<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Linda, I hope you didn't think I was having a go at
either of those objects! I was just trying to make a point. I love museums in
all their forms.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>You know, I don't think it matters about
"professional" vs. "volunteer". Some of us are lucky enough to have a budget.
But we are all working our butts off to make our own museums the best possible
places, and it's good to hear from everyone.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><BR></DIV><FONT size=3>Hello Everyone,<BR><BR>Writing as the one who has
dared to mention doilies on list, and who is quite proud of our large
collection of farm machinery, I am sure that the other volunteers with whom I
work would be delighted to find somewhere where they felt welcome to discuss
matters they felt relevant to them.<BR><BR>It would be interesting to know the
breakdown of the list, although I guess that sort of data isn't available. Is
it possible, Joy, to have some sort of poll as to volunteer versus
professional membership of the list? It would be interesting to know. And how
does one define "professional" anyway?<BR><BR>Maybe I am in the wrong
place?<BR><BR>Linda Barraclough<BR><BR>Team Leader - Cataloguing<BR>(A
