'We drafted a call for papers, asking for a range of pieces that tell the story of public sector folklore in Missouri. The response was remarkable, and we ultimately worked with authors of the eight articles collected here. From the integration of traditional artists in public school residencies, to collaborations between a folklorist and a social worker who examine foodways, to the personal journeys of a traditional artist and a late-career folklorist, these articles illustrate the partnerships that are created among folklorists, teachers, and professionals throughout the state and region. The works here fall into three broad categories: project overviews and retrospectives; case studies and preliminary fieldwork; and personal narratives.' (Higgins and Medel, Introduction)  3
