- John is 63 years old and is the Chief Archivist and Curator for the Archives Center for the National Museum of American History. He has PhD degrees in American social history and advertising, and archives and museum administration. He has worked at the American History Museum for over 35 years, has extensive experience working with archival records, special collections, and museum objects, and teaches courses in archives and museum administration for American University. (
- John would need:
- To be able to limit results to the collections he 'owns' for use in his classes
- To have his collections be easily discover-able in the library's single search
- Note from Scott: I'm out of time, but who ever follows up with this persona should be sure to understand that access to museum objects associated with archival collections follows museum object descriptive practices that are slightly different from archival descriptive practices, and the descriptive practice is always at the item level rather than the collection level.)
- Maura's Note: Would John need the option for different entry fields? Or have his information displayed differently to the public? Perhaps a separate Museum Object versus an Archival Object?
