Our profession is a weird and rare one. So I love to see a collections manager as the main character in "Egypt Calling" by Paul Kater.
Here's the book: https://paulkater.com/egypt-calling.html
And here's the Registrar Blog post about it: https://world.museumsprojekte.de/egypt-calling-is-out/
Is #DisappearingStautes a hashtag? I feel it should be!

Plot twist: British Museum, expert at preserving ancient artifacts, struggles with modern ones! Ex-IT employee causes chaos by shutting down booking systems. Guess they'll need to add "Digital Artifacts Management 101" to their curator training.
Unser Tiefdepot am GNM ist fertig (https://www.youtube.com/shorts/BWsdwls9Y5o) und es ist ziemlich witzig, dass es mich total an die Werkräume und Kabelgänge von einem Containerschiff erinnert, mit seinen ganzen Rohren, Gittern, Brandtüren und seiner Gas-Löschanlage.
(Das unten sind übrigens die Gänge der alten Depots - but you get the point)

Today at the museum:
While I was in the lab, a visiting researcher was telling an amusing personal story to several of my employees. I wasn’t really listening, but it was convoluted and had something to do with DandD. The she got to the punchline and shouted
“Leedsichthys!”
And my employees laughed and laughed!
I love my job!

Last night was the @westernsciencecenter annual fundraiser, Science Under the Stars. Thanks to our amazing staff and donors, who raised money last night to support the museum’s program and research, and to begin upgrades to our Ice Age exhibits!

When you've been at the museum store for two hours and realise you haven't even taken your coat off.
