Where, What, How, Who, and Why? Collections Where, What, How, Who, and Why? Let’s talk about collections and collecting today. First, think about what you know about collections and collecting. Using the question words, what are some questions you can ask about collections? (Answers:Where are collections? What are they? How do they get there? Who collects things? Why do we collect things?) SHSU LS 5375.03/ Summer I 2011/ Chris Margocs

Where? Where do we find collections? Museums Libraries Grandma’s attic Under your bed Let’s look at where we find collections. Can you think of any places? Collections can be found in (read from slide). Texas Ranger Museum and display, RROC museum, Florence Public Library, and an attic or bed like yours. Do you have any collections in your home? Where do you keep them? SHSU LS 5375.03/ Summer I 2011/ Chris Margocs

What What is in a collection? Books Videos Art Papers Photos Pokemon cards Silly Bands Realia What can be collected? (Ask for ideas before clicking) (Click through the list) Does anyone know what “realia” is? “Realia”, according to Merriam-Webster.com, are objects or activities used to relate classroom teaching to the real life especially of peoples studied—things like clothes people wear, artwork, or artifacts. SHSU LS 5375.03/ Summer I 2011/ Chris Margocs

What are some descriptions of a good collection? Interesting items All the items connected somehow Only one or two of the same exact item Sentimental, monetary or historical value So what do you think makes a collection a good one? What kind of collections do you have? Do they fit the criteria on the slide? Can you think of any other criteria that makes a collection worthwhile? In my house, we have lots of collections: M&Ms dispensers and toys, videos, books, figurines, pottery, photos, art, and owls. SHSU LS 5375.03/ Summer I 2011/ Chris Margocs

Click here for an article on collecting How How do collections get to those places we talked about before? Bought Donated Searched and found Have you ever wondered how items get into collections in museums and libraries? Well, let’s think about how items have gotten into your own collections. (solicit answers) You may have gone out and bought what you wanted, or maybe someone gave it to you as a gift—like a donation. Maybe you have to go out and search for the items, like special rocks…or artifacts like Indiana Jones does in the movies!

Who Who does the work of collecting/ caring for collections in libraries and museums? Curators Archaeologists Anthropologists Librarians Conservators So now that we know where collections are kept, what makes a good collection, and how collections are built….let’s think about who does the work of collecting the items for libraries and museums? Are there really people like Indiana Jones in real life? What jobs are there in collections development? (click to bring up jobs) Curators help choose and get the items found in museums. They get to decide if exhibits are permanent, or temporary, and they write about them in catalogs. They also have to verify if the items they receive are real. Archaeologists study artifacts from the past, while anthropologists study human behavior and culture. Librarians are responsible for collections of books and items in libraries, and conservators help repair and conserve art and artifacts. Most of these jobs require master’s degrees. If you like collecting, these could be the careers for you! SHSU LS 5375.03/ Summer I 2011/ Chris Margocs

Why do we have collections? They make us happy. They connect us to our family and culture. They teach us something. They have either monetary or historical value. Why do we collect things? (solicit answers) Let’s see if your reasons match the ones listed here. Look at (or think about) the collection in our library. What do we have available? Why do you think it’s in here? How can we use the materials? SHSU LS 5375.03/ Summer I 2011/ Chris Margocs
