Museum Studies Students,



Would you like to participate in a focus group about ExhibitFiles during 
your trip for the American Association of Museum’s (AAM’s) Annual Meeting in 
Houston? If so, please go to the following link to provide us with some 
information about you and your availability: 
http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/7DW7CYV

ExhibitFiles is a community site for exhibit designers and developers funded 
by the National Science Foundation. It was developed by Association of 
Science-Technology Centers, Ideum, and a core group of users. It is open to 
professionals who work in all types of museums.



By providing this information you will become part of a pool from which 
focus group participants will be selected. You may also indicate you would 
be willing to participate in online focus groups later in the evaluation. We 
want to make certain the groups represent several museum studies programs 
and a diverse group of individuals who are and are not familiar with this 
social media website for exhibit designers and exhibition developers.  If 
you are not familiar with the site, please know you are encouraged to send 
in your information.



 The focus groups will be held on Monday, May 23 and Tuesday, May 24 in the 
afternoon at Embassy Suites Hotels, 1515 Dallas Street, Houston, TX 
77010-7137. It is a five minute walk from the Convention Center. A map is 
available here to help you estimate time: http://tinyurl.com/6gjzn53.



I need your information by May 17 so I can confirm participation. Those 
selected will be participating in the summative evaluation of ExhibitFiles. 
This is a naturalistic-responsive evaluation study where issues and concerns 
are identified among important stakeholders. Museum studies students are an 
important group with a stake in the future of ExhibitFiles.



If you would like to ask questions or find out more, call or email me at the 
phone number or email below.  If you are interested, please use the link to 
send me your information today!



Best Regards,
