    LOUGHBOROUGH ARCHAEOLOGICAL AND Registered Charity HISTORICAL SOCIETY No. 513032 Founded in 1955 AUTUMN NEWSLETTER 2012 Old Rectory Wins Heritage Award Three of the independent museums in Loughborough - The Old Rectory Museum, The Great Central Railway Museum and the Carillion War Memorial Museum - all expressed similar needs for support around managing their collections. A new partnership (Loughborough Museums Together Project) was formed with the help of Amanda Hanton, the Volunteer Development Officer for Leicestershire CC, to support them with this. The aim of the project was to recruit a new pool of volunteers to support Loughborough Museums and provide a comprehensive training programme to enable those new volunteers to fulfill all necessary roles; Modes, accessioning of collections, care of collections, labeling, documentation, photography etc A very successful event was held at Loughborough Library when 30 new volunteers of all ages and background were recruited. After visiting each museum the new volunteers indicated which one they would like to be involved with and those that chose the Old Rectory have been meeting there every Wednesday morning since January. Grants financed training, the purchase of a laptop and the MODES software, to enable the museum’s objects to be digitally catalogued, and the recruitment of a paid volunteer support worker who attended each session at each museum for six months giving advice on collections care and management. “Great introduction into museums work and what was going to be expected.” “Lots of team work, everyone works well and efficiently. Lots of interesting artifacts. Shows reality of ‘behind the scenes’ work in a small museum.” Objects have been cleaned (if needed), described, accessioned, index cards updated and information passed to the Modes imputers.
