Resumen: Museums and galleries in the 1990s face unprecedecented changes and challenges. Cuts in public funding have pushed museums into the marketplace, where they must compete for visitors market their 'product' and generate their own income and sponsorship. Museums are criticized as being 'worthy but dull' compared to the new heritage and leisure attractions, yet must also find ever-increasing resources to care for their collections. For all these reasons, management has become the key issue for museums and galleries. Museums must develop more effective management and marketing, if they are to survive and prosper into the next millennium. Museums Management brings together a selection of essential writing on the subject by some of the leading authorities in the fields. The Book outlines the development of museum management to date, the challenges museums currently face, and the key areas of future development in management and marketing practice. The papers selected address strategic management issues such as policy formulation, corporate planning and performance measurement, human resource management, financial management and the importance of marketing. This volume is an invaluable introduction to the key issues, controversies and debates in the subject. It will be essential reading for all students, museums managers and staff who need to keep up to date with latest developments in this field. (Font: Editor)
