Running a Museum: A Practical Handbook
Source: ICOM
The preparation of this book, Running a Museum: A Practical Handbook, came about at the request of UNESCO’s Intergovernmental Committee for the Safeguarding of the Cultural Heritage of Iraq. The need was felt for an elementary manual that could be used by trainers and trainees in courses on museum subjects, as a tool for persons already working in museums in Iraq, and as a reference document providing guidance for more in-depth study of particular aspects. It would also be of interest to laymen in understanding the basic aspects of running a museum.
