In recent years, concepts of management within museums have changed dramatically. With greater specialization and increased professionalism has come a growing recognition of the importance of sound curatorship. Museum Management and Curatorship provides unrivalled coverage of subjects vital to the future provision of museum services, including: the archival function of museums - conservation for future generations as well as collecting object-based knowledge; application and development of new techniques of conservation and display; and the theoretical, social and cultural bases of museums. In addition to the lead articles the journal features: A Professional Notes section which provides a forum for short contributions of a more technical nature.
