As I’ve mentioned before, I love working at NERI and fondly think of the museum collection as “mine.” We really feel like we have accomplished so much over our last five years working here and that the collection is in so much better shape than it was.
This year, we continued to perform backlog cataloging and re-housed and reorganized the museum collection. We also decided to tackle the many items that had never been accessioned into the collection.
In order to make it easier for those who will come after us, we inventoried and photographed all of the unaccessioned items. These items will require a review and determination as to whether they meet the Scope of Collection Statement and should or should not be accessioned into the collection.
Jessica was so good at her job that we recommended that NERI hire her as a museum technician. By doing so, however, we pretty much guaranteed that NERI would no longer need our services. That’s a sad thought for us, but the park needs Jessica on a full-time basis.
