AASLH Small Museums Newsletter :: American Association for State and Local History By Jessica Potts, Program Director, Monterey County Agricultural and Rural Life Museum, King City, CA Programming for a small museum in a small community has its challenges. The Monterey County Agricultural and Rural Life Museum is located in a county park in King City, California. Our museum recently participated in a Community Engagement/Public Dimension assessment as part of the American Alliance of Museum’s Museum Assessment Program (MAP) which we found to be tremendously beneficial. A program suggestion that we received from our MAP evaluation was to investigate the possibility of offering a weekend reading program. The museum held our first Storytelling and Crafts program on the first weekend of September. Another benefit was the personal growth of our tour guide (and now storytelling program coordinator). Here are some tips that might help you develop your own programs: Look at your untapped resources. Jessica Potts has served as MCARLM’s program director for the past 5 years.

Dark Olive Green Wool Felt Fedora Wide Brim by HatsNCompany iMo Monster 10″ Touch USB Monitor Review Nanovision's MIMO range of USB companion displays are no strangers to the pages of SlashGear, and we've reviewed our fair share of them over the months. Standing proudly on the test bench today, though, is the company's biggest to date, the 10-inch touchscreen iMo Mini-Monster. A titan among USB secondary displays (and a Tinkerbell among regular LCDs), the iMo Mini-Monster promises the same ease of connectivity as its smaller siblings but with the same resolution as a 10-inch netbook. Worth the $259.99, then, or has Nanovision overestimated exactly what consumers want from their companion LCDs? Physically the iMo Mini-Monster looks a little like a basic tablet, with minimal screen bezel surrounding the 10-inch, 1024 x 600 touchscreen display. As with the other MIMO displays we've tested, the iMo Mini-Monster relies on DisplayLink's virtual graphics driver technology. On a desktop PC or a decent notebook, running a single MIMO display isn't going to bring your system to a halt.
