Chapter 1 of The Manual of Museum Exhibitions by Lord and Lord is brief and to the point, with diagrams and charts if you like that sort of thing. The different roles and tasks are outlined in that first chapter and greatly expanded upon in the rest of the book.

Dawn Scher Thomae Milwaukee Public Museum From: Museum discussion list [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Robin Gabriel Sent: Monday, September 12, 2011 8:35 AM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: exhibition development outline An outside organization has approached me to do an exhibit at my museum; we have agreed to do it, but since the employees of the outside organization will be doing the lion share of the work (and they have never done an exhibit before), I need to give them a clear outline of the steps and stages of creating an exhibition. Before I reinvent the wheel, does anyone have a suitable outline that will summarize the various stages of exhibit development?
