For example.. Full lime staff have dedicated laptops so ¢an work from anywhere in rnany situations and, as relatively new devices. have prov¢d more reliable than the old Pcs within ihe Museum. u￿ of Office365 for email by staff and trustees means little support needed other than creating and closing accounls.
