Museums must change to illuminate the histories, cultures, and social issues that matter to their local population. Based on a unique longitudinal ethnographic study, Transforming Museum Management illustrates how a traditional art museum attempted to transform into a more inclusive and community-based institution. Using open systems theory and the Buddhist concept of mutual causality, it examines the museum’s internal management structure and culture, programs and exhibitions, and mental models of museum workers. In providing both theoretical and practical foundations to transform management structures, this accessible volume will benefit stakeholders by proposing a new culture and structure to arts institutions, to change practice to be more relevant, diverse, and inclusive. This book will be an invaluable resource for researchers and advanced students of museum studies, cultural management, arts administration, non-profit management, and organizational studies.

While digital tools are not new to museum management, more activities are being performed through their use in order to attract visitors, enrich the cultural experience, vary the experience context, and innovate the cultural industry.

Further perspectives and insights are needed on the implementation of these digital instruments in museums. The Handbook of Research on Museum Management in the Digital Era combines theoretical efforts and empirical research to contribute to the debate on museum management in a digital context. It further observes, tracks, and assesses the ongoing changes brought on by digital solutions. Covering topics such as organizational change catalysts, sustainability of cultural heritage, and phygital experience, this book is an excellent resource for museum managers, museum curators, computer specialists, students and educators of higher education, researchers, and academicians.
