Museum Collecting Lessons - Acquisition Stories from the Inside (Hardcover)

1. The book explains how and why museums meet their fundamental duty to collect. Taken together, the chapters included within the book provide fascinating insights into a wide variety of significant acquisitions and museum collecting initiatives. 2. The eleven chapters that make up the volume are written by museum practitioners working in art, history and science museums in the United States, Canada and India. This will ensure that the book will be of interest to aspiring, beginner, and experienced museum professionals around the world. 3. There are no directly competing titles, as other books about museum collecting have focused on just one specific museum, type of collecting or type of museum. This is the first book to provide a rich mix of examples of museum collecting in one place.
