Museum and Historic Site Management: A Case Study Approach utilizes
the classic business case study approach to help museum and public
history professionals think through different scenarios and
understand/anticipate different points of view in resolving issues.
The case studies are fictionalized representations of real life
situations that have occurred at museums, historic sites, and
non-profit organizations. Elements from multiple situations will be
incorporated into each case study to create multi-faceted scenarios
that challenge the reader to develop their own creative, yet
pragmatic solutions. The case studies read like a story-embedding
the reader in the fictionalized museum or historic site. A brief
introduction contextualizes the issues under exploration. Then the
case begins with the story. The main protagonist guides the reader
through the issues at hand. Other characters posit different points
of view. The solution is not provided. Instead, while considering
his/her options for resolving the situation, the protagonist asks a
series of questions that provide guidelines for different
solutions. For example, in a case involving deaccessioning, the
protagonist might consult AASLH materials, AAM standards, and
newspaper articles about the Delaware Art Museum or Brandeis
University Rose Art Museum deaccessioning. Based on those materials
and other discussion points, the protagonist will consider the
various solutions. The thirty case study topics include board
management, fundraising, personnel planning, technology, and
financial planning. The preface includes detailed notes on how to
use the cases in instructional settings.
