Four staff members and necessary equipment, furniture, and materials to allow digitization and cataloging of collections to continue remotely or on-site with physical distancing.
Receipt of grant funds would ensure Massillon Museum retain the core museum functions of collections care and access, while also retaining four staff positions consisting of the archivist, registrar, curator of football heritage, and administrative assistant. Purchase of equipment to facilitate remote cataloguing and creation of digital content for online publication, as well as to conduct simultaneous onsite digitization efforts to maintain social distancing and a safe work environment, are part of the project plan.
