<p><strong>Description:</strong></p>
<p>Collections management is a critical component of running a
museum. Most museums have collections and these collections
drive the public functions and activities of the
institution. Collections management is the physical and
intellectual management of these items. In this course we
will examine how information is collected and recorded for
each object brought into the collection - a process called
registration. We will also examine the policies that govern
what is brought into the collection, including the most
important piece of institutional policy--the museum mission
statement. These policies are assembled into the collections
management 'bible'--the registration manual. At the end of
this course you should have a clear understanding of how and
why collections are documented in museums and the governing
principles that drive daily museum activities.</p>
