Description

Since the first edition of this book was published in 1987 under the title "New Museums - A Start-up Guide", there has been a remarkable growth of interest in developing new museums throughout the UK. "Managing New Museums" has therefore been written to include references to these important new developments. Arranged in four sections - First Steps; Managing the Collections; The Museum and its Users; and Managing the Museum - the book examines the many different responsibilities which go with managing new and successful museums. It also answers the many common questions raised by those involved in running museums, particularly in the independent sector.
