Description

This book is a practical guide for everyone who is confronted with a collection that hasn't seen any preventive conservation or cataloging before. It helps gaining an overview, defining priorities, and organizing the work in a way it is safe for the objects and the people involved. It defines "logical exits", goals to work towards where the collection is in a state the next steps can wait without risking the progress made. Later on, readers learn to define their own "logical exits" that fit their specific situation.

Compared to other books about collections management it doesn't focus on the details of collections care, but rather on the big picture of managing such a project. It assumes that at the beginning there is nothing but the reader and an unmanaged collection, so that part of the project is to source money, material, and people to help.
The second edition has a new chapter on setting up collections management systems, the original text was reworked and in parts enhanced, there are additional success stories in the last chapter with references to them in the text, and the bibliography now contains some resources for natural history, indigenous, and archaeological collections.
