Measurable Outcome(s)

The original measurable outcome was completing the inventory of objects on the second floor in the museum's Glen Warehouse, located on MDC?s property. This outcome was achieved and we are prepared to move into the final phase of the inventory process which will be to complete the first floor of the Glen Warehouse. The total number of objects inventoried was less than estimated at a total of 2,381 objects.

We achieved these results by adhering to the formula presented in the original grant proposal. Mr. Clarke, Ms. Aubin, and Ms. O?Sidhe spent an average of 20 minutes per object. Attached are sample inventory sheets.
