Seeking peer reviewer for Nottingham medical collection


Here at Nottingham City Museums and Galleries we are currently reviewing all sections of our social history holdings.  Our medical collection consists of around 1,900 objects ranging from the contents of a chemist shop (purchased in the early 70s), to intelligence tests, medical tools and material directly related to hospitals.  We are looking for a reviewer to spend around three days in store viewing around 20% of the medical collection, inspecting storage and reviewing our documentation.  They will then produce a report of their findings, plus recommendations (a template for findings will be provided).

We invite prospective reviewers to quote for five days work plus expenses. Work to be completed late 2017 or early 2018. For further information, the full brief (with methodology) and an example report please contact:
