The American Numismatic Society (ANS) has released the first episode of the second season of their excellent podcast, The Planchet. In this first episode of the new season, the ANS hosts an extensive interview with Dr. Irene Soto Marin, Assistant Curator of Numismatics at the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology and Assistant Professor of Classical Studies at the University of Michigan.
Season 2 of The Planchet podcast kicks off with a wide-ranging conversation with Dr. Irene Soto Marín, Assistant Curator of Numismatics at the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology and Assistant Professor of Classical Studies at the University of Michigan. We discuss her work at the Kelsey with its rich collections of ancient coins and papyri (and related archaeological documentation), Linked Open Data (LOD), the value of the ANS’s Eric P. Newman Graduate Seminar in Numismatics, and advice to early career researchers (ECRs) on building a professional network and tips for time-management.
The Planchet
The episode runs approximately 45 minutes and provides some excellent insights both into her curation work as well as insights into researching.
Currently, the ANS produces an up-to one-hour long podcast each month. There will also be occasional special episodes focused on ANS news and information.
