At the last meeting we discussed developing a grant proposal for a survey, which would be done through the UW Survey & Analysis Center and reviewed by Wyoming’s Economic Analysis agency. Colorado Wyoming Association of Museums, the participating museums & libraries will write the survey.
The survey would be sent to all of the libraries (23) and museums (about 200) in the state. It would address the four concerns outlined in the Heritage Health Index but would be worded specifically to Wyoming. CWAM will apply for this grant with various partners from libraries and museums identified. The grant would also cover a part time position to administer the grant. This person would be hired through CWAM and work closely with the board members.
This plan is still in the early development ideas. If you have comments and/or suggestions, please click on "comments" below.
Our next meeting (everyone is welcome) will be during CWAM’s annual meeting in Sheridan. Come to the Best Western bar on May 9th at 4:45 if you wish to contribute or have questions.
