    More than just a gift shop, your organization's store can provide visitors, volunteers, staff, and other stakeholders the opportunity to directly support your mission while offering unique, highly-curated, and mission-related items. But where to start?

    Using examples from the Maine Maritime Museum store, we'll review existing resources and easy-to-implement ideas to start or improve your organization's retail experience—in person and online. 

    About the presenter:
    Amanda Pleau is the Marketing & Communications Manager at Maine Maritime Museum. She graduated from University of Southern Maine with a BA in Media & Communications and an MFA in Creative Writing. Amanda is a boomerang—she left Maine after graduate school, and after a number of years in western Massachusetts and Los Angeles, she is happy to have settled in Bath with her partner and their four-legged friends.

    Registration for this event closes Friday, August 15.

    Any repository, be it an archive, historical society, manuscript collection, or museum, creates and uses records to execute their mission. Good records management increases efficiency, lowers stress, and forestalls legal conflicts— basically it is vital to operations. 

    This workshop will address organizing, filing, naming, and retention of records, as well as back up, access, and vital records.

    Presented by Susie R. Bock, who has a master’s degree in European history and a Master of Library Service and almost 40 years of professional experience in academic special collections.
