I just order this book by mistake and had to return it. However, I can recommend this for any person eager to keep museums' collections perfectly registered. It's an excellent book on the topic and a must have reference book.As for the seller, they were always ready for any query on shipping or even were very kind regarding the return of this book. I do strongly recommend this seller for any book order.

Great articles about registars, collection managment, policy making, and standards. The format is simple and organized, making it an easy read. I used this in my graduate work, and later in other instances so it is worth the buy. All the articles are short and to the point, as well!

As a museum studies graduate student focusing on collections management, this book is invaluable. If you need to know it, it's here. Heck, if you don't need to know it but you're curious, it's probably here too.

A great resource for museum professionals. It should be required reading for anyone working in collections care. Sadly, this is not the case.

An updated version of the best reference book for museums.

You may not like the price, but this is an essential text.

I read it for a class...it's very informative.
