ADAMEK, Anna    GANN, Emily. Whose Artifacts? Whose Stories? Public History and Representation of Women at the Canada Science and Technology Museum. []. , 68, pp.47-66. ISSN 0121-1617.  https://doi.org/10.7440/histcrit68.2018.03.

Whose Artifacts? Whose Stories? explores uses of public history to tell stories of women’s relationship with science and technology at the Canada Science and Technology Museum, one of Canada’s national museum. The article examines how stories of women, which have been long overlooked by curators who in the past considered technological artifacts through the lenses of type collecting and history of science and technologies methodologies, are now being framed in the context of public history and hence are coming to the forefront of museum collecting and interpretation.
