Museum Basics (The Heritage : Care-Preservation-Management Program)

Drawing from a wide range of experience, the authors propose the simple ideas which should underpin all professional museum training courses. Organized on a modular basis, Museum Basics provides a basic guide to `best practice' in every aspect of museum work, from museum organization, through collections management and conservation, to marketing and security. It is designed for training courses, to be supplemented by case studies, project work and group discussion.
