    What platforms are museums using for virtual guides? Is there an industry standard? What is the typical budget for app creation and annual support? Is this an area of study in museum studies, or does it fall under another area like member services? I'm interested in developing this skill area. Thanks ;-)

    This is a great question Lily!  I would be very interested to know what others are using to place videos, and lesson plans online where teachers can access them.

    I would love to hear more about this topic! I am conducting a research project this Fall and am looking for museum personnel to participate in anecdotal interviews related to digital initiatives in the age of COVID-19.
