| Zusammenfassung: | Museum curators enter the profession with a specialist subject qualification and yet at some point in their career, many curators find themselves in charge of a range of collections outside of their expert knowledge. Interpreting, curating and caring for mixed collections demands of curators a wide range of knowledge and understanding. The Curation and Care of Museum Collections is designed to give curators the fundamental information and confidence they need to manage and care for all of the collections within their responsibility, regardless of their previous training and experience. Comprising two sections - Museum Collections, and Collection Development and Care - the chapters cover archaeology, art, history, military and natural sciences collections, as well as heritage properties. Every chapter in the book is focused on one type of collection, but all chapters in the collection management section contain advice on topics such as organisational philosophy, documentation, legal issues and materials in order to provide a useful and comprehensive guide to managing collections. The collection care section is structured in the same way, considering the issues of storage; display; handling; moving; packing; housekeeping; health and safety; emergency preparedness; and pest, pollution, environmental, light and vibration management. The contributors to this book are experienced museum professionals, each with their own specialism and a deep understanding of what it means to work in the context of mixed collections. Providing a highly practical guide, The Curation and Care of Museum Collections is essential reading for curators working in all types of museums, galleries and heritage sites, and for students of museology courses around the world |

Interpreting, curating and caring for mixed collections demands of curators a wide range of knowledge and understanding. The Curation and Care of Museum Collections is designed to give curators the fundamental information and confidence they need to manage and care for all of the collections within their responsibility, regardless of their previous training and experience. Comprising two sections - Museum Collections, and Collection Development and Care - the chapters cover archaeology, art, history, military and natural sciences collections, as well as heritage properties. Every chapter in the book is focused on one type of collection, but all chapters in the collection management section contain advice on topics such as organisational philosophy, documentation, legal issues and materials in order to provide a useful and comprehensive guide to managing collections. The collection care section is structured in the same way, considering the issues of storage; display; handling; moving; packing; housekeeping; health and safety; emergency preparedness; and pest, pollution, environmental, light and vibration management. The contributors to this book are experienced museum professionals, each with their own specialism and a deep understanding of what it means to work in the context of mixed collections. Providing a highly practical guide, The Curation and Care of Museum Collections is essential reading for curators working in all types of museums, galleries and heritage sites, and for students of museology courses around the world Museum (DE-588)4040795-0 gnd rswk-swf Sammlungsverwaltung (DE-588)4509540-1 gnd rswk-swf Kurator Museumskunde (DE-588)4688848-2 gnd rswk-swf Museumsorganisation (DE-588)4301385-5 gnd rswk-swf Museumskunde (DE-588)4170787-4 gnd rswk-swf Museums / Collection management BUSINESS & ECONOMICS / Museum Administration & Museology REFERENCE / General TRAVEL / Museums, Tours, Points of Interest Electronic books 1\p (DE-588)4143413-4 Aufsatzsammlung gnd-content Museum (DE-588)4040795-0 s Sammlungsverwaltung (DE-588)4509540-1 s Museumskunde (DE-588)4170787-4 s Museumsorganisation (DE-588)4301385-5 s Kurator Museumskunde (DE-588)4688848-2 s 2\p DE-604 Campbell, Bruce A. edt Baars, Christian 1976- (DE-588)137677561 edt Erscheint auch als Druck-Ausgabe, Hardcover 978-1-138-58919-3 Erscheint auch als Druck-Ausgabe, Paperback 978-1-138-58921-6 https://www.taylorfrancis.com/books/9781138589209 Taylor & Francis 1\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 2\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk |
