Dear Sir or Madam,
I am Associate Professor at the Jagiellonian University in Krakow, Poland, and I conduct a study on intellectual property management within museums. If you work at a museum, I kindly request you to participate in a brief survey.
The survey aims to explore the perspectives of museum staff regarding the practicality of intellectual property rights in their daily work. It should take approximately 15 minutes to complete and all responses will remain anonymous.
The survey is in English and comprises 25 factual questions, primarily offering single-choice, rating, and ranking options. There are also three open-ended questions that require responses in English.
You can access the survey online:
https://culturemanagement.limesurvey.net/256147?lang=en
I have attached a Word document containing the list of survey questions for your reference prior to completing the survey.
The research findings will be included in an upcoming book and scientific article. I will also gladly share the results. Shall any of the participants be interested in them, please contact me at anna.pluszynska(a)uj.edu.pl.
Your participation would be greatly appreciated, and I kindly request to complete the survey by 23.12.2023.
Thank you for your cooperation.
Sincerely,
Anna Pluszyńska

Dear colleagues,
With apologies for cross-posting.
We would appreciate if you could please circulate the below information about a AHRC-LAHP doctoral award at UCL and Kew Gardens.
The Department of Information Studies at UCL and Royal Botanic Gardens Kew are excited to announce a doctoral studentship for a collaborative research project to critically evaluate the history of the Kew Gardens Archives between 1841 and 1958 to understand record-keeping at Kew as both instrument and legacy of the British imperial project.
Empire and archives are intimately linked. Archival forms and record-keeping practices reflect and inform systems of governance; record-keeping was central to attempts by imperial powers to maintain administrative control. The Archives of the Royal Botanic Gardens (RBG) Kew are of significance to the history of global botany and in addressing questions of biodiversity loss, climate change, and environmental sustainability. By employing participatory research methods with historically impacted communities, the research will enable new, more diverse histories of Kew Gardens and British imperialism.
We are now recruiting a student. We are looking for applicants with an undergraduate degree in a relevant subject and a Master's degree or equivalent professional experience. We also welcome candidates who have some experience, qualification or understanding of archival science or archival history, demonstrated by, for example, use of archives in their previous research, a post-graduate qualification in archives and records management or relevant work experience in an archive. We particularly welcome applicants from diverse backgrounds, or those who could bring a community perspective to the research.
Please see details and how to apply: https://www.lahp.ac.uk/prospective-students/collaborative-doctoral-awards-p… . The closing date is 5pm on Friday 26th January 2024.
Best wishes
Marco
