ABSTRACT
The main purpose of Museum Basics is to provide a basic outline of good practice for museums with few professional staff and limited financial resources worldwide. Many museums internationally have inadequate staffing and resources to meet their responsibilities fully. They have common needs and face common challenges. Despite this, they individually and collectively care for a unique resource – their collections – which represent a significant part of the world’s heritage. This book has been written to help museums care for and provide access to those collections and meet the management challenges they face.
