Click on the hyperlinks to access the videos, articles, or websites.\u00a0<\/li><li><strong>Helpful tip: <\/strong>Hillwood publications often list an accession number, which is a unique identifying number, for objects in the collection. For instance, in <em>The Houses and Collections of Marjorie Merriweather Post:<\/em><em>The Joy of It<\/em>, the accession number can be located in the section that details the artist\/maker, location, dates, materials, and credit line for each object (at the top of each entry). Using the accession number is the best way to search for the object on Hillwood\u2019s <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/hillwoodmuseum.org\/collection\">collection database<\/a>.<\/strong> Note: accession numbers are most useful for looking up mansion objects; some of the outdoor sculptures are also on the database, but defer to the Comprehensive Garden Notes and the Garden Sculpture lecture, rather than the online database, for the most up-to-date information pertaining to the sculptures.<\/li><\/ul><h3><strong>Further Study<\/strong><\/h3><p>There are additional readings over-and-above those found on this required reading list; these are materials that Hillwood recommends for further study on its collection and founder.

Washington, DC: Hillwood Estate, Museum &amp; Gardens, January 2024. <strong>How to study this resource:<\/strong> Focus on the garden stops (the mansion stops can be reviewed later in the training). Get familiar with the garden sections\/rooms, features, and objects covered in the audio tour script, as this document will be referenced throughout the training with specific sections due for each class on the gardens. The goal is to read the entire document by the end of the training. <strong>Note:<\/strong> This is a compilation of the scripts from the following audio tours: mansion, garden, family, French collection, and Russian collection. You have two options for accessing this resource: 1) You can read it as a Word document available from the volunteer website or 2) Download the <a href=\"https:\/\/hillwoodmuseum.org\/visit\/plan-your-visit\/guiding-yourself\/mobile-audio-tour\">mobile app<\/a> from Hillwood\u2019s website, located under \u201cVisit\u201d (the app includes images of the objects and rooms, which is handy). We recommend listening to the audio tour, with audio script in hand while walking the garden and mansion rooms. Note: only pencils (not pens) are allowed in the mansion. Note: Hillwood is closed to the public from January 15-February 2, 2024.<\/p><p>Post, Marjorie Merriweather. \u201c<a href=\"http:\/\/volunteer.hillwoodmuseum.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Post-M.-Notes-on-Organization.pdf\">Notes on Organization.<\/a>\u201d 1965.<\/p><p><a href=\"http:\/\/volunteer.hillwoodmuseum.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Docent-Reading_Selections-of-Primary-Sources-about-MMP-1.pdf\">Selections of primary source documents about Marjorie Merriweather Post and Hillwood\u2019s gardens<\/a>\u00a0<\/p><p><em>Visitor Guide and Map with Audio Tour<\/em>.
