First, thank you for your excellent website. I have spent hours "at" the Getty, and treasure the ability to see the works, and especially the ability to zoom in on details of some of your wonderful manuscripts. This has really opened up a whole new world to me. If I ever get to LA, a visit to the Getty will be at the top of my "to do" list.

This is more a wish than a question. I would love to have some way of asking questions about the work that I see, sort of an "ask the curator online." I realize that this would probably not be practical from the museum's end, but a girl can dream....

Thank you for responding. Yes, I'm looking for a place where a complete amateur could ask what would probably be very basic questions, or just comment on what s/he sees. I think your Facebook page is one place where this kind of thing might be happening. But a few of us in the world still aren't on Facebook and it would be nice to have such access without having to join. The Getty Twitter feed is wonderful, and responsive, but the character limit is an obstacle.
