Dear Mr. Lee, I have just recently learned about the Taiwan SIG group and am interested in learning more about your subgroup.
Unfortunately I will not be able to attend the MCN meeting this year as I will be going to Taiwan to attend an ICOM and CCA sponsored conference from Nov. 2-4. I will be in Taiwan from Oct. 31 to Nov. 8 and would like to know whether it would be possible for me to contact you or your associates when I am in Taiwan. I've been teaching a course titled "Collection Management and Registration" at the Graduate Institute of Museum Studies, Fu-Jen Catholic University, each spring since its inception. Although I do not cover data management per se in the course at Fu-Jen, my teaching responsibilities at Texas Tech University's Graduate Museum Science Program does include a course offering titled "Data Management." I realize that due to language differences, the database management systems used in Taiwan and US are vastly different (perhaps I am wrong on this), but I would like to learn more about the database management systems used in Taiwan, especially in a museum setting. I look forward to your favorable response. Sincerely, Mei Campbell Curator of Ethnology & Textiles Museum of Texas Tech University And Adjunct Professor Center for the Advanced Studies in Museum Science & Heritage management Adjunct Professor Graduate Institute of Museum Studies Fu-Jen Catholic University On 10/19/06 10:18 PM, "Terri Chen ???" <terri at gate.sinica.edu.tw> wrote: > ?What we can do together for future collaboration?? > > Taiwan SIG Meeting > > 12:10-1:15 pm, Friday, November 10 > > > > > > Dear MCN members, > > > > Taiwan SIG is pleased to announce its first meeting at the MCN conference.
