I asked this a while ago and got no nibbles but let’s try again: I’m a librarian and archivist who will be visiting Iceland and Ireland in mid-October and I would LOVE to meet some library/archives/museum people/get some GLAM recommendations while I’m traveling. Please boost, thank you 💚💚💚💚
@TeamMidwest If you want better pickup from people who don't follow you, you may have more success by adding # tags like #Iceland #Ireland and #librarians. You can even edit your post to add a few # s in
@TeamMidwest ask @MarkMaguire if there's a network of #Irish #Museum people to ask
@Kay @TeamMidwest Hi both ☘️: If you’re looking to catch Irish Mastodon’s attention try group hashtag #Mastodaoine I’ve found #GLAM useful for sector reach. DM me if you need specific info but the largest all-island network is the Irish Museums Association
https://www.irishmuseums.org
Irish Museums Association - Ima

The Irish Museums Association (IMA) is an all-island, non-profit body. Established in 1977, it is dedicated to the promotion and development of museums, the museum profession, and standards of excellence in museum practice.

@MarkMaguire Many thanks. Hope this helps @TeamMidwest
@Kay @MarkMaguire @TeamMidwest the hashtag #mastodaoine is in fact how I found this thread, and the post!
@alisca @derekbrauders @MarkMaguire @TeamMidwest FWIW I'm not a #librarian but a #bookaddict and fan of all things #GLAM and even #GLAMR = like GLAM but with records!

@Kay @derekbrauders @MarkMaguire @TeamMidwest

it sounds to me - and I'm just spitballing here, no bad ideas - that we should all meet Eira in Dublin, go hard on the National Museum and National Gallery before retiring to Grogan's for lunchtime toasties and pints?

@alisca @Kay @derekbrauders @TeamMidwest That’s it. Wait till the power of the #Mastodaoine is unleashed during the visit. It’s a superpower!
@Kay @alisca @derekbrauders @TeamMidwest Neither am I a librarian 😁 but yes all things GLAM and glam good 👍
