Manual Of Museum Management

This guide is intended for anyone involved in the creation, development and management of museums in the 21st century--both those working inside museums and those working outside museums, such as government and foundation agency staff responsible for museums or grant-aid to them, designers and other museum service providers, and teachers and students in museum studies and related programs. Coverage includes the objectives, structure, and methods of museum management. Chapter concepts are illustrated by twelve case studies of contemporary museums and galleries contributed by specialists from the UK, the U.S., and Australia. This is a reprint of the text previously published by The Stationery Office in 1997. Distributed by Rowman and Littlefield. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
