Connecticut Humanities Council launches "Heritage Resource Center"
The Connecitcut Humanities Council recently launched an online "Heritage Resource Center" (HRC). Built primarily to address the needs of Connecticut's heritage constituents, its readings and resources also reflect national issues facing that community and capture current best practices in the field. Visitors who find it useful are encouraged to share it with constituents in the museum field.
Readers are invited to post comments on articles and posts they find particularly helpful. The site will also soon feature reports, surveys, white papers from successful CHC stabilization projects and other data of particular importance to the museum community and, especially, to prospective applicants to the Connecticut Humanities Council's Revitalization Fund. Some of these resources are already available online and all are available in hard copy upon request to HRC staff. Additionally, visitors to the site can find the "Community Center" where they can suggest additional readings, alert their colleagues to upcoming professional development opportunities and cite conference papers that they found particularly useful.
