142  Access to American Cultural Heritages.   Buckland. Fall 1997.

Assignment 7:   Interview. Due Nov 25, not Nov 13.

Interview someone active in relation to access to cultural heritage: Librarian, museum manager, cultural attache, cultural or historical society official, preservation activist, documentary movie maker, teacher,...

Find out about that individual's values, motivation, priorities, and sense of the political and economic issues being faced. Feel free to add your own comments to your account of the interview.

It makes sense to talk to some person who would be a useful source of information about the topic of your portfolio, but that is not a requirement.

Send an e-mail note with two paragraphs -- one about the person you talked with and the other a brief summary of what you learned -- to is142@sims.berkeley.edu as soon as you can, but no later than Nov 13. Also a written summary (approx. 2 pages single-spaced) to me due Nov 13.
