An industrial museum in the heart of tartanism: The creation of the Nova Scotia museum of industry
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In the 1960s, Nova Scotia experienced a substantial increase in the number of museums across the province.Although most were cultural tourism sites, several were small industrial museums.The expansion of industrial museums peaked in the 1970s when the Nova Scotia Museum greenlighted the construction of the largest museum in Atlantic Canadathe Museum of Industry.A series of delays hindered the operations of the museum, and heated political debates led to the temporary closure of the Museum of Industry.This thesis details the origins of industrial heritage tourism in Nova Scotia and the extent to which it offers a romanticized narrative about the past.Further, it considers how and why the Museum of Industry became politically contentious in the 1990s.It also reflects on the place of the museum within the industrial community of Stellarton, and, more broadly, in Pictou County, the heart of Scottish tourism in Nova Scotia.Susan Parker, 20 August 2018 I would like to also thank Laura Bennett at the Nova Scotia Museum.Her assistance in gathering materials from the complex's archives when it was without a librarian is appreciated and provided important

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
