Kia Ora / Greetings We are about to initiate a project to explore the issue of a national standards scheme for New Zealand Museums and Art Galleries. By this we mean a scheme which will provide museums with a tool for measuring their performance. Does anyone have a bibliography they would like to share with us - or any information or reports on such standards schemes? (this includes accreditation or registration or guidelines schemes) We have some information on the Museums and Galleries Commission Registration Scheme in the United Kingdom and are also in contact with colleagues in Australia who are developing their National Guidelines. Please respond off list. Thanks in advance Janice Frater Senior Adviser,National Services Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa [log in to unmask]
