Description:
People may think museum work is all about arranging and caring for objects, or that it's dry and dusty, or even that there is a mysterious world ' behind the scenes at the museum'. What is it really like? Here, seven museum professionals from Reading University's Museum of English Rural Life talk about their day-to-day work, their career paths and what motivates them.
