Inventorying Cultural Heritage Collections: A Guide for Museums and Historical Societies

This two-part text argues that regular inventories are central to meaningful, sustainable, and ethical collections preservation and access. Part I offers a flexible project management framework that illustrates strategies for reining in control of collections now. Part II gives voice to practitioners around the world through case studies that affirm the vital role of inventories in regaining control of collections.
