content: In March 2010 Karp went to University of Michigan to give the concluding talk in a lecture series in the Museums Studies program, intended to be a discussion of the preceding talks which he received as draft papers. This folder contains his notes for the talk and transcriptions that Kratz had done for him after he returned. Kratz reviewed and corrected the raw transcription files. After Karp's death, Kratz used his notes and the transcriptions to write the essay "The Interrogative Museum" for the edited book that resulted from the lecture series as a posthumously "co-authored" paper. Also included here is an image of the covers from the three museum books, used at Michigan as part of Karp's introduction.
