Institutions you can visit with your class
As of Fall 2021, not all GLAM sector organizations have resumed in-person group visits. When scheduling off-campus research trips, it’s best to contact the organization as far in advance as possible, be open to a remote visit, and be patient and flexible. Have a question or suggestion? Let us know how you are partnering with local institutions in the comments.
