<p>The Joys of History! I invite you to take a look at the
attached notes from Bill Barley's presentation at a March 1988
Conference of the BCMA at Harrison Hot Springs. Just as I was
writing this note, one came in from BCMA about the new Strategic
Plan. Happy coincidence. What was once thoughtfully new
compared with what is now thoughtfully new. History comes alive
and continues to grow.<br>
</p>
<p>Sorting through old file boxes, notes emerged from the 14 March
1988 BCMA conference "<b>Getting on Track for the '90s.</b>.
Presenters were Bill Barkley, Pat Bovey, Carol Mayer, Nicholas
Tuele, Beverly Sommer, Carol Tulk Greg Evans and Joy Leach. It
is fascinating to compare with hot topics of both the novel
new-time things of that 1980s era and the "Are we still talking
about this?" topics of today, 40 years later!</p>
<p>Attached is a synopsis of Bill Barley's talk an the topic of
Administration. Bill was then CEO of the RBCM during a time of
great change. He also served as a BCMA Councilor and President
of the Canadian Museums Association.</p>
<p>A side aspect for this is to note the names that were once so
prominent in our BCMA museum world and who now are prominent in
memory while new names create their own history.<br>
