This workshop develops the skills and knowledge learned in the first session to expand attendees’ understanding of Collection Policies and how to apply them to their own collections.

Presentation: The principles, policies, procedures, and practicalities involved in managing collections systematically and accountably. We will take a deep dive into developing a Collections Policy that guides your organisation's goals and engagement.
Practical: Review, refine or write your own Collections Management Policy.

On completion of this workshop, participants will be able to:

Describe the components of a museum documentation system, including mission, policies & procedures.
Describe the relevant documentation and record creation associated with collections management.
Evaluate your organisation's Collections Policy and identify areas for development and/or review.
Identify tools and resources to assist with high-standard collections management.

A laptop or device you can edit a Word document on.
Your Collections Policy if you have one.
