Hello all:

I have been asked to help compose a short primer for museums which might
encounter archeological resources in their collections or on their
properties.  The focus is on creating a brief guide to help museums which
do not have professional archaeological help readily at hand.  A list of
key points, what to do, what not to do, and whom to turn to.

Being an archaeologist as well as a museum professional, I have a pretty
good outline for the primer, but I hope others on the list can share with
me some of their tips or suggestions, or perhaps even their primers they
have compiled or used!

Thanks!

 Dan W.
