Creating Digital Exhibits for Cultural Institutions will show you how to create digital exhibits and experiences for your users that will be informative, accessible and engaging. Illustrated with real-world examples of digital exhibits from a range of GLAMs, the book addresses the many analytical aspects and practical considerations involved in the creation of such exhibits. It will support you as you go about: analyzing content to find hidden themes, applying principles from the museum exhibit literature, placing your content within internal and external information ecosystems, selecting exhibit software, and finding ways to recognize and use your own creativity.Demonstrating that an exhibit provides a useful and creative connecting point where your content, your organization, and your audience can meet, the book also demonstrates that such exhibits can provide a way to revisit difficult and painful material in a way that includes frank and enlightened analyses of issues such as racism, colonialism, sexism, class, and LGBTQI+ issues. Creating Digital Exhibits for Cultural Institutions is an essential resource for librarians, archivists, and other cultural heritage professionals who want to promote their institution's digital content to the widest possible audience. Academics and students working in the fields of library and information science, museum studies and digital humanities will also find much to interest them within the pages of this book.

This book explores the histories and functions of museums while also looking at the current standing of museums and their ongoing efforts toward relevance, resiliency, and future-proofing. Section I examines the beginnings of museums with chapters dedicated to art and design museums; natural history and anthropological museums; science museums; museums focused history and the past; and gardens, zoos, and childrens museums. Emphasis is on museums in the United States, with some historical framing beyond the U.S. Section II explores the primary functions of museums, including conservation, exhibition, interpretation, engagement, and service. Section III examines museums from within by exploring critical issues and contemporary movements facing museums and our society: transparency and openness, labor and equity, belonging and coalition-building, risk-taking and risk aversion, and sustainability and empathy. Advocating for change rather than death to museums, Museums in Motion demonstrates the very premise that museums have been in motion all along, as they have shifted from their rather simple form of a treasury, storehouse, and tomb to something much more complex by deeply considering where museums have come from, where they are today, and where they are going.

Recent decades have seen migration history and issues increasingly featured in museums. Museums and Migration explores the ways in which museum spaces - local, regional, national - have engaged with the history of migration, including internal migration, emigration and immigration. It presents the latest innovative research from academics and museum practitioners and offers a comparative perspective on a global scale bringing to light geo- and socio-political specificities. It includes an extensive range of international contributions from Europe, Asia, South America as well as settler societies such as Canada and Australia.Museums and Migration charts and enlarges the developing body of research which concentrates on the analysis of the representation of migration in relation to the changing character of museums within society, examining their civic role and their function as key public arenas within civil society. It also aims to inform debates focusing on the way museums interact with processes of political and societal changes, and examining their agency and relationship to identity construction, community involvement, policy positions and discourses, but also ethics and moralities.

The museum has become a vital strategic space for negotiating ownership of and access to knowledges produced in local settings. Museum as Process presents community-engaged "culture work" of a group of scholars whose collaborative projects consider the social spaces between the museum and community and offer new ways of addressing the challenges of bridging the local and the global.Museum as Process explores a variety of strategies for engaging source communities in the process of translation and the collaborative mediation of cultural knowledges. Scholars from around the world reflect upon their work with specific communities in different parts of the world Australia, Canada, Ghana, Great Britain, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, Philippines, South Africa, Taiwan and the United States. Each global case study provides significant insights into what happens to knowledge as it moves back and forth between source communities and global sites, especially the museum. Museum as Process is an important contribution to understanding the relationships between museums and source communities and the flow of cultural knowledge.

Museums everywhere have the potential to serve as agents of changebringing people together, contributing to local communities, and changing peoples lives. So how can we, as individuals, radically expand the work of museums to live up to this potential? How can we more fiercely recognize the meaningful work that museums are doing to enact change around the relevant issues in our communities? How can we work together to build a stronger culture of equity and care within museums? Questions like these are increasingly vital for all museum professionals to consider, no matter what your role is within your institution. They are also important questions for all of us to be thinking about more deeply as citizens and community members. This book is about the work we need to do to become changemakers and demand that that our museums take action toward positive social change and bring people together into a more just, equitable, compassionate, and connected society. It is a journey toward tapping the energies within all of us to make change happen and proactively shape a new future.

The last two decades have seen concerns for equality, diversity, social justice and human rights move from the margins of museum thinking and practice, to the core. The arguments both moral and pragmatic for engaging diverse audiences, creating the conditions for more equitable access to museum resources, and opening up opportunities for participation, now enjoy considerable consensus in many parts of the world. A growing number of institutions are concerned to construct new narratives that represent a plurality of lived experiences, histories and identities which aim to nurture support for more progressive, ethically-informed ways of seeing and to actively inform contemporary public debates on often contested rights-related issues. At the same time it would be misleading to suggest an even and uncontested transition from the museum as an organisation that has been widely understood to marginalise, exclude and oppress to one which is wholly inclusive. Moreover, there are signs that momentum towards making museums more inclusive and equitable is slowing down or, in some contexts, reversing.

Since the turn of the 21st century, there has been a significant expansion in the field of transhistorical exhibition practicethat is, exhibitions in which objects from various art-historical periods and cultural contexts are put on display together. These juxtapositions are made in an effort to question traditional museological notions like chronology, context and category in the space of the museum itself.Drawing on the expertise of a wide range of international museum professionals, The Transhistorical Museum: Mapping the Field considers a range of such transhistorical curatorial efforts, exploring the rationale behind these projects, the particular challenges they present and the particular rewards they can offer. This volume surveys the history and future potential of the phenomenon of the transhistorical museum.

Only a decade ago the notion that museums galleries and heritage organisations might engage in activist practice with explicit intent to act upon inequalities injustices and environmental crises was met with scepticism and often derision Seeking to purposefully bring about social change was viewed by many within and beyond the museum community as inappropriately political and antithetical to fundamental professional values Today although the idea remains controversial the way we think about the roles and responsibilities of museums as knowledge based social institutions is changing Museum Activism examines the increasing significance of this activist trend in thinking and practice At this crucial time in the evolution of museum thinking and practice this ground breaking volume brings together more than fifty contributors working across six continents to explore analyse and critically reflect upon the museum s relationship to activism Including contributions from practitioners artists activists and researchers this wide ranging examination of new and divergent expressions of the inherent power of museums as forces for good and as activists in civil society aims to encourage further experimentation and enrich the debate in this nascent and uncertain f

Cada vez es mayor la conciencia sobre la importancia del patrimonio inmaterial para el turismo. Hoy en día, la sociedad busca la autenticidad de los territorios frente a las múltiples imitaciones; de ahi la necesidad de poder ofrecer los recursos intangibles de una forma continuada no solo a los propios residentes, para fomentar su sentimiento de pertenencia, sino tambien a los turistas. De este modo, y a causa de la reducida practica de este tipo de acciones, se hace una propuesta para digitalizar los recursos turisticos inmateriales mediante varios procesos, aplicada concretamente al caso de Cullera.

A Waterstones Best Book of 2024 Nature Writing The untold story of rural Britain revealed through its artefacts A really lovely fascinating book I dived straight into this clever joyous celebration of nature history and of course the countryside Charles Spencer author of The White Ship For most of human history we were rural folk Our daily lives were bound up with working the land living within the rhythm of the seasons We poured our energies into growing food tending to animals and watching the weather Family friends and neighbours were often one and the same Life revolved around the village and its key spaces and places the church the green the school and the marketplace And yet rural life is oddly invisible our historical records The daily routine of the peasant the farmer or the craftsperson could never compete with the glamour of city life war and royal drama Lives went unrecorded stories untold There is though one way in which we can learn about our rural past The things we have left behind provide a connection that no document can match physical artefacts are touchstones that breathe life into its history From farming tools to children s toys domestic objects and strange curios the everyday items of the past reveal fasci
