National Postal Museum closes due to COVID-19
This article discusses the closure of the Smithsonian National Postal Museum in Washington D.C in January of 2022. This is significant due to the fact that its closure is a result of staffing shortages, which have been affecting museums all over the country during the COVID-19 pandemic. This is a significant contribution to the archives because museums do not have a lot of representation within the archives, especially postal museums. The article is important to me personally because I was able to visit there once while I was in Washington D.C., and it was an interesting experience.
