Description

Explore new perspectives on museum management with Active Collections by Routledge. While many museums have updated how they engage with the public, the methods used for collections stewardship have often remained stagnant. This book addresses that gap by examining current approaches and proposing practical, radical ways to manage collections more effectively. Written from a position of "tough love," the authors look at how museums can better manage their holdings to actively advance their specific missions. By questioning rigid traditions, this work offers a path forward for institutions looking to evolve their stewardship practices. It is a necessary read for professionals in archaeology, social sciences, and museum studies who want to understand how to move beyond outdated constraints and implement meaningful changes in collection management.

Key Features

Examines current museum collection stewardship and identifies areas where traditional approaches may be falling behind modern engagement standards.

Offers practical and radical strategies for museums to manage their collections in ways that directly support and advance their organizational missions.

Provides a unique "tough love" perspective that challenges the rigid ways the museum field often handles its collections.

Connects collection management directly to the broader goals of audience engagement and institutional evolution.

Serves as a resource for professionals in archaeology and social sciences seeking to modernize their approach to museum holdings.
