Outreach Coordinator
University of Pennsylvania Museum
33rd and Spruce Streets
Philadelphia, PA 19104-6324 |
Purpose and Policies:
The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania funds the Outreach
Lecture Program of The University of Pennsylvania Museum of Archaeology
and Anthropology. The program's mission is to make the resources
of the Museum available throughout the public library system of
the State of Pennsylvania. Libraries that sponsor an event must
make it public and free of charge. Libraries are responsible for
a $50 coordination fee for each lecture.
Lectures that are sponsored by
any other organization will be funded by that
organization in full, i.e. the fee of the speaker
and travel expenses.
Responsibilities of the
Museum:
Contact the speaker to schedule
time, date, and location of the lecture. Confirm
the time and date of lecture in writing to host
institution. Provide a photograph of the speaker
for publicity. Provide an honorarium to the
lecturer and reimburse his or her travel
expenses.
Responsibilities of the host
organization:
All lectures must be open to the general public
for free. Provide space and publicity for the lecture. All publicity
must acknowledge the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania as the sole funding
source, as well as the sponsorship of The University of Pennsylvania
Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology. Provide the Museum with
copies of publicity and attendance figures after the event. Libraries
are responsible for a $50 coordination fee for each
lecture. We appreciate thank you notes that can be included in our
annual report to the legislature..
