[MCN-L] Visitors survey kiosks - looking for good examples
Hello, We are re-designing our visitors survey kiosk and we are looking for good examples. The physical station is already built. We are thinking about the callouts: - What language and graphics will get us more responses? - What passerby visitors should see when the kiosk is sleeping? If you have a good example at your museum, we would love to see a photo. BTW - we want to develop a short laser light show that will run when the visitor completes the survey. We want kids to ask their parents to fill the survey so they also will get their lightshow.

[MCN-L] Small university museums: social media and blogging policies
Dear Jesse, I work at a small university museum too and we've been using social media for quite some time now. We don't have an official social media policy. We use Facebook, Twitter and a few other platforms for experimental science communication, and if something feels right, we usually just do it. The response is not always impressive, but almost never negative. Have a look at some of the accounts posted below (although most posts are in Danish) and I'll be happy to answer questions and discuss further with you :) www.museion.ku.dk (our blog/website) www.facebook.com/medicalmuseion www.twitter.com/medicalmuseion Best regards, Daniel Noesgaard Senior Curator, MS University of Copenhagen Faculty of Health Sciences The Novo Nordisk Foundation Center for Basic Metabolic Research ?
